workingman Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 So I picked up a 1975 xs 500b for my girlfriend thinking I could make a pretty sweet cafe racer out of it. But i am having a hell of a time fining carb parts for it. the floats in one have crumbled to pieces . so I need new floats. I found a carb kit but of course the floats do not come in the kit . does anyone know where i can find parts for this thing? Thanks Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I don't think they are mikuni or hitachi If the carbs looks identical to the ones below then I have a bunch of spare parts. Floats $20/ea You could try Speed and Sport (http://216.168.60.165/speedandsportinc/index.tpl), they usually carry NOS parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
