    I've just bought a XJ650 turbo and it has one of the float bowls missing, does anyone know if other model of XJ carb float bowls will fit?

    Unfortunately not, the Turbo bowls are unique in configuration (they have a land cut into them for the acceptance of an o-ring). We should have a good used one available, send me an e-mail for details.

    If you can't find a replacement float bowl, or another carb, it may be possible for a good machine shop to modify a non-turbo float bowl to accept the o-ring.
