i'm looking at the zx9r carbs because they seem a bit cheaper than others but what would be the best bike carbs to suit a 2l zetec if there is such "best carb"

basicaly anything that size: R1, ZX9R....... (I'm sure some people have used others as well)
for a while it seemed everyone was using R1's, but these got more expencive and harder to find and now ZX9R's seem to be in fashon

I got mine from bogg brothers - and all I asked for was a set of carbs for a 2.1 pinto, I was half expecting R1 carbs, but they got the ZX9R's quicker and cheaper and they recon there are just as good

the early ones used kehin CVK carbs and the late ones (E and F) use CVR's

but any of these will do the job
(although I think some of the very early ones don't have a TPS which you might want if you've got electronic ignition)
