    What is the best place to get Carb kits and floats?

    For a 1977 GS750?

    Chances are that you will be better off WITHOUT carb kits. Just clean your existing parts and get new o-rings from cycleorings.com.

    As far as the floats are concerned, why do you need floats? I believe yours are brass, so should last virtually forever.
    If they have gas inside them, they can be emptied and re-soldered.

      The floats are plastic and they are disintigrating. I wish they were brass.

        Hi,

        Either partsnmore.com or Z1Enterprises.com should have the best prices on floats. Feel free to do a little comparison shopping using the vendor list in your "mega-welcome".

        I agree with Mr. Steve. Don't use the aftermarket "carb kits". Get an O-ring kit from cycleorings.com and use the carb rebuild tutorials on my little website.


        Thank you for your indulgence,
