Kawasaki F9 Bighorn Carburetor - Part Number 16001-140 on 2040-parts.com
Lawrenceburg, Indiana, US
This carb came from a running F9. It is marked "F9" on the carb body.
It was soaked in carb cleaner for 72 hours and blown clean with compressed air. A Keyster carb kit (part number KK-0032) was installed. It appears to be functional and clean. Typical adjustments will be necessary. It has not been used since rebuild.
According to several websites, this should be Kawasaki 16001-140 CARBURETOR ASSY and was used on these models (and perhaps others):
1972 F9 CARBURETOR - Bighorn 350
1973 F9-A CARBURETOR - Bighorn 350
1974 F9-B CARBURETOR - Bighorn 350
1975 F9-C CARBURETOR - Bighorn 350
The outlet side has an outside diameter of 1.425 inches. The carb is very narrow, about 2.5 inches.
These "small body" Mikuni carbs are no longer produced and seem unavailable from NOS suppliers. This is about as close to new as you will typically find.
I am not a professional mechanic nor supplier. I believe everything written here to be correct, but I do not guarantee this product or information. Please do your own research and ask questions before bidding.

MINI Speedster back on the cards
Tue, 07 Apr 2009Mini Speedster from 2001 - looks set to form the basis of a new MINI Speedster Based on the MINI platform, the Speedster version was talked about as long ago as 2001, but never made it to production on the first MINI platform. But perhaps having now covered just about every variant they can think of, BMW has decided that now is the time to revive the car and get it in to production. Small Roadsters, in the vein of the old British open-topped 2 seater ( and its modern ‘Homage’ version – the MX-5) will, I’m sure, see something of a renaissance in the next few years as people start to turn away from big, profligate cars, but still seek some fun motoring.
