Hey again, It looks like the bandit was fitted with either BST32ss and BST33ss carbs depending on the bikes location in the world... the GK73a has BST32.. RRFK has 33mm!! RK has 32mm. The bandit manual says that BST32ss were fitted to US bandits.. model revision E-03.. and revision E-33 for California (Different pilot jet size). UK and most european Bandit 4's had the BST-33ss.. Superficially both the 32mm carbs look the same.. but as for internals, i'm guessing different jet sizes. If you buy a bank from a bandit, it's best to pull them apart and compare then to you originals.. The ID stamp is on the side of the carb body just above the float bowl..
