Aye Darren,

Quite a few people on here with knowledge of SLR650, but not me!  ???

However, these are the people to contact for specific info, on top of what you glean from here. I believe that your carb are 40mm Keihin.

I hope this helps and welcome to the "Off the wall world of the Thumper Club"!   :)

My regards, Bill

I drilled the baffles out of my SLR and up-jetted the carb. I'm sure I got the jets from e-bay for a couple of quid each.

Also NRP might be worth looking up. They specialise in carb and petrol tap kits.
