    GS1000 carb overflow pipe securing clips

    i need to get some of the little securing clips that go on the overflow pipes on the floatbowls.
    i cannot see them listed on the fiche and wondered if anyone can point me to a part number or a source for obtaining them.

    thanks..

      Securing clips?? Picture may help. I thought they were just pressed in to the bowls. Its just a standard VM 26 bowl, so I would bet there are many around for sale. The Cafe Kid for sure has a stockpile.

      I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

                    If the tubing is snug you wont need the clips...unless your just going for "the look". I get regular vacuum line from the auto parts store for my over flow drain tubes and just slide it on.

                            Cant say as I recall that pipe deal..but its a good idea. You then just need the one down tube for the drain. you make that or get it somewhere?

                              thats right Chuck. much tidier having 1 pipe hanging down behind the engine.

                              i made it myself
