Just received my XS1 carbs from Rick at Oldscoolcarbs and WOW! The bike had been sitting for 25+ yrs and the carbs I thought were done. Totally locked up.Highly recommended . Now I just need to get the bike finished.Next,rebuild the forks.:)

These where the tools that where in a plastic bag in the tool tray.Are these original? Anyone have a tool kit from 1970?Thanks
