Looking for a decent set of carbs for a 1977 Z1000a1 . A set of bodies would do as somebody has attacked mine with a drill :cry:
Cheers Keith

Can they not be repaired?

I've got a set but the bodies have been bored out (though they've been done professionally as opposed to a gorilla with a Dremel)

I think I might have a really nice set of restored Z1000a1 (26mm carbs) if they are of interest?

I've managed to pick up a few sets of vm26's over the years that were incorrectly listed as vm24's and 22's.
Generally around the £100 mark.
Might be worth adding 650 carbs to your alerts.
