I'm starting on the mifold for my zx9 carbs, does anyone know the correct angle the carbs need to be at?

cheers

The join where the float bowl fastens on should be level.

Although it sounds logical . I dont think the carbs are always mounted with the float bowl joint level , you really need to see them on the bike and suss it, those ones above look very slanted including the float bowl join.

I'm getting confused in my old age .
I've got the sump join on the brain because I've just been reading about sumps.

Picture of the angle here.
