Replacement Carburettor for VN800 Drifter

[Pete]

Did you wind up getting the carb?

No, I didn't need one. I was just passing this on for those who do have a need.

Genuine Kawasaki carbs became unavailable from Kawasaki some years ago. I just stumbled on this claimed like-for-like replacement, complete with TPS.

Had anybody seen one of these in the flesh or know anything about it?

Did you wind up getting the carb? My buddy wants to buy my drifter that's been sitting and wants to rebuild the carb. Said some of the internals in the kit differ from the carb.

Seen this maybe an option but hoping it's a last resort.

Nope, never seen it, but it looks really like the OEM carb...
