Bendix Zenith Carburetors
Primarily designed for 60 to 75 cubic inches, the Bendix brand carburetor - the 16P12 model to be precise - has proven to be a perennial favorite for pre-evolution engines. Simple to set up and reliable in function, with reasonable performance, the carburetor manufactured by Zenith is another icon among Harley carburetors alongside the good old Linkert. Whether with fixed jetting or adjustable main jet, the good old Bendix fits everything from Sportster to 1340cc.
Bendix carburetors are available from W&W in two sizes, as an original replacement with 38 mm Venturi and fixed main jet and as a custom product with 40 mm Venturi with adjustable main jet, both from the original manufacturer. Plus spare parts and gaskets and a large selection of accessories for this carburetor.
What is a venturi?
If you open both the throttle and choke discs completely and then look through the carburetor, you will see a slight constriction, mostly in the center of the carburetor bore. This is also where mixture exits the main nozzle. This point is called the venturi.
