Selling my carbs because of CVK34 (from Kawasaki EX500) switch. They work well, had them dialed in just right for UNI pods and stock exhaust. Diaphragms are in great shape.

Clean and rebuilt with new:

- Yamaha float valves + seats
- float bowl gaskets
- needle jet o-rings
- pilot screw o-rings
- throttle shaft seals
- stainless allen screws all around
- mikuni jets, #30 pilot and #137.5 main
- also have stock jets (#27.5 and #135 I believe) plus #140 spare new mains
- also have motion pro vacuum barbs, and will provide screws

Would like to get $175 shipped - SOLD.

Also, holders:

- 1 set were on the bike, bit cracked on the outside but otherwise airtight and in good shape, with clamps (allen screw) and metal cage - $30 shipped for the pair
- 1 set of just the holders (no gaskets no cage), Heiden provenance, no vacuum barbs - $40 shipped
- both sets for $60 shipped

See pics. Carbs:

How do the heiden tuning items compare to the JBM manifolds? Any cracks or deterioration? Were you using them?
 
I imagine it's OEM quality as, opposed to knock-offs. I.e. should be good for another 35 years :) I've used these for about 2 weeks, they're like new, solid pieces.
 
Need to double-check price. USPS should not be prohibitive. I'll get back to you when I'm home (in Europe at the moment), remind me on 07/20 if I don't get back to you. Thanks
