Looking on E-bay I noticed a CL-77/72 with 450 CV carbs, anyone ever heard of this swap?.........D

One of the bike magazines, Cycle Guide perhaps, did an article on it back in the day.

Hi,

In my opinion it should be an easy swap, especially with a 350 cc kit.
But what would be the purpose of it ? If you swap, take the CB500T instead,
it has an accelerator pump,

Do they fit under the gas tank ?

Jensen, this is just a bike I observed on E-bay. My bike actually runs just fine. I have noticed in other threads rideability issues that could maybe be addressed with CV carbs, yet I haven't heard mention of this swap. They do appear to fit under the tank.......................D
