The CL carbs have CL stamped there.
I saw the square bowl in the pic. ......lm
Have you ever seen a CB72 that had non power jet carbs? It will be interesting to hear whether or not olebmw's carbs have a power jet. If not some pics of his to compare with the set I have here.

The carbs that came with the bike are the undrilled type.

Thanks for the update! Hope to see some pictures when you have time.

I was looking through Bill Silver's "History of the Honda Scrambler", chapter 24 titled "Major features from year to year". Bill states for a 1962 CL72: "Original round bowl shaped carburetors were installed".......................Interesting!
