stock carb 05 honda 450r What is it?

[hoyttrucks1]

Hey guys i am sure you know right off the top of your head but I need to order jets for my 450r and am about 500 miles from the machine to see what the carb is on them. I basically need to know what brand carb it is. Thanks in advance.

its a keihen 42mm carb

its a Keihin and stock is only a 39mm. If i was u I would just buy an 06+ FCR carb. All in all a much better carb and alot easier to jet and tune correctly.

The 04-05s are Keihin 42mm round slide

The 06+ are keihin 39mm flat slide FCR's
