Default Desperate for 80cc carb help

So I bought a kawasaki quad the other day and the lady I bought it from threw in a dirt bike missing some parts. I have the bike almost complete it needs a new carb how do I know what size to buy? All I know is its a kawasaki and around 80cc, no clue on the age either but if you guys could tell me how to measure or something that would be great.

There should be a small plate riveted to the frame, usually on the steering head, that has the model number and a few other relevant details.

Also, cross-posting (ie where you posted this question in two different forum areas at the same time) is strongly discouraged and something you agreed not to do in the terms and conditions of your membership.

Write down the headstock vin numbers and the stamped numbers on the engine. Let us know. Welcome to KF

I moved this post to the appropriate place and deleted the other.

No problem. Hate seeing folk new to forums get in trouble with mods and admin right off the bat from an innocent mistake.
