Specifically, that are direct bolt-on to the intakes & stock airbox? Jetting suggestions for same on a stock motor w/unmodified OEM exhaust.

Keihin makes expensive flat-slide carbs.
I have no experience with them, and the fact you are asking means you likely have more experience than the rest of us...

I bumped into info on their high-end carbs earlier this year when I was exploring the Keihin web site (changing their name to Hitachi Astemo which is a bad idea for any brand recognition).

Their application chart lists various 4 cylinder Honda but not the 750 you have - it would be worth a phone call.

As for fitting the intake - airbox, it appears some of their carbs for 4 cylinder engines are mounted on a bracket with slots so you can adjust spacing between them (don't know about diameter connecting to the manifold though).

The first 2 minutes of this video is garbage, but after that it is interesting that these are not vacuum operated Constant Velocity carbs.
