I bought a project XS500 without carbs. Could anyone recommend a good replacement carburetor for a 76 or 77 XS500?

try this web site they might be able to help you its called ;I LOVE MOTOR CO.LTD ,THEY ARE BASED IN JAPAN THE MANS NAME IS; MR TOSHIAKA SHIOZU ,YOU WILL HAVE TO LOG ONTO A WEB SITE CALLED ALIBABA.COM THEN LOG THE COMPANY AND HIS NAME TO FIND IT.

Tried that and never received a reply. Thanks though. It turns out my bike is actually a '78 XS500E. The carbs that the bike came with were Mikuni BS3411. Does anyone know any alternative carbs I could use in place of the BS3411? Like the Mikuni VM round slide??

Thanks,

Austin
