I  just purchased and took delivery of these Ebay carbs.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4-carburetors-22-mm-keihin-for-honda-vf-500-/252436259529?hash=item3ac65fa2c9:g:AzwAAOSwLnlWmQMP

They are 32mm diameter. They appear brand new, so I assume they are NOS.

The float bowl O rings are a bit flattened from age.

The code on the carb bodies is VD56E which means they are 1985 Canadian I think.

They have the single side fuel entry.

They have two vent tubes connected to the T tubes connecting the carb bodies

The main jets (only checked one so far) are #90

So they look like 84 carbs after they have been modified according to the service bulletin from 1985

I am very pleased with them and I now expect my 86 to go much faster......

I have no affiliation to the seller whatsoever. His Ebay ad is a bit light on details so  I figured I could fill in the gaps.
