Hello,

I am currently trying to rebuild the carbs on my 1982 Honda CB650SC Nighthawk, and the manual I have says the bike has VB44A Carbs. I previously ordered a rebuild kit for the bike, but the holes on the jets were WAY too small. Does anyone have any good recommendations for a carb rebuild kit that has the stock jet sizes?

Any chance you can reuse the old/original jets after cleaning?

I don't know about specific kits, but the stock size pilot jets on that bike should be 35, same as all other Nighthawks except the 450.  I don't have info on the main jet but the '83-'85 650 used 115.
