I would appreciate your expertise. I read the S/B and see there was an issue with the early carbs on these bikes. Post S/B appears to be impression stamped H2-4 on the body. This carb is stamped H2-5, is that a later revision? Thanks

apologies for the poor-quality photo

Um, you might post a different picture?

If the stamping is "H2" and the number "5", it would be the 4th modification of the original H2 carb, very late model.

Does the bowl have a threaded banjo fitting on it? If so, that is for one of the 4 oil lines from the oil pump.

It looks OK if you tell your browser to shrink it to 25%.

Sure does, thanks for the response.

Any idea what's different?

Could be anything from air corrector, jets, float bowl gasket, name it.

Thanks, looks like they had issues with the early carb and the jets. I was just happy they are a later configuration. You really don't know what you have until its on the bench.

Two reasons for "updates", lower power levels/porting, and that Holier of Holy words.... EMISSIONS.
