 ====== The Keihin CV carburetor ======

+Here some details about the carburetors mounted on the Honda NTV 650 Revere. They are two Keihin carburetors marked as **G4AACDt**. They are constant velocity (CV) carburetors, that uses engine vacuum to operate a diaphragm-controlled slide, rather than a direct cable connection.

   * **Slide, diaphragm, needle**
     * Slide lift holes: vacuum bleed holes that control how quickly pressure changes reach the above diaphragm chamber.
