rz 350 carb idetification (31w)

Post by gman »

G'day. I have been chasing a right side 31k carb body. I've found one on an overseas for sale listing but it has 31w stamped on it. I thought all the early rz 350 had 31k stamped on the carb then they went to 1ua powerjet carbs. Does anyone know if the 31w is the same as 31k??Image

If it is any help to you; the code 31W corresponds to 1984 RD350 for the European market. The frame number range for 31W models is 31K-044101 to 048000.
In the absence of further info, I would expect the 31W carb to be similar. However, if earlier RZ/RD-YPVS carbs were stamped 31K, there must be some difference in a carb stamped 31W - I'm sorry I can't offer any more insight.

Regards,
James
