even if someone benched synced a set of carbs and sent them out it may shift with transport and like said b4 the vacuum from each cylinder varies from piston ring and valve wear thats why they have to be done on the bike.
EDIT: if the float posts broke some members have "repaired" them but i just went to a suzuki dealer and they had one sitting on the shelf 100$ you can also try the parts for sale/wanted sections a member may have one floating around. your last bet is ebay but only as a last resort read the descriptions!
all the information is in your mega welcome found here->http://members.dslextreme.com/users/..._Greeting.html
a lot of information can also be gained from this guys site here->http://members.dslextreme.com/users/bikecliff/
the info from the ^ is from years of experience from many reliable members on here so its a great read.
also try out the search feature found under thread tools and clicking advanced search "titles only" i can almost guarantee that your problems have been addressed before but if your having trouble it never hurts to ask.
and lastly in your "User CP" adding your bike to the signature will help others know which bike you are working on. Just an added tip.

There are several ways to fix the broken posts. Do a search. Let the carbs soak overnight. If they still won't come out try a little heat..

Greetings and Salutations!!
Hi Mr. yadamean,
You may have to pick up a rack of carbs from Ebay, properly clean them, put them on your bike, and sync them yourself. There are members here who will properly clean them for a fee, usually much less than "professional shops" will charge you, AND do a much better job. Check the services section of the forum. Check the Parts for Sale and post in the Parts Wanted sections to facilitate your search for a good set of carbs.
Anyway, let me dump a TON if information on you and share some GS lovin'.
