Hello-

Does anyone have the body (or a complete carburetor if you wish) for a VHBZ 25 BS that I can purchase? The threads to the main jet/float bowl nut on one of mine stripped today.

Thanks!

Daniel

I have a couple of VHB 25 BS bodies in usable condition going spare (I run PHBH28s on both my bikes). I can never remember what the 'Z' signifies. I thought just the bore size range on later versions. The HS had vacuum/balance tubes I think and possibly removable float needle seats?

I bored my carb and machined up a threaded insert.

The Timsert system would be a good fix. The tooling is quite expensive, so you'd probably want to track down someone who has a kit.
