Thanks.

Spec page says its a Keihin VM32SS carb. Well, which is it? the VM32SS is made by Mikuni?.?... Can anyone shed light on that?
Thanks

I do believe it should be a mukuni round slide

I have extra time on my hands so I thought I would look it up for ya:)

32mm Roundbore mikuni
230 main
45 pilot
Needle 6fj50-4 with clip on 4th groove from the top
Float height 23.8 +/- 1mm
Air Screw not listed but a good rule of thumb is 1.5 turns out from lightly seated.

This info is straight from the oem Kawasaki workshop manual.
