need to source some carbs for 1981 GS750E

[Guest]

One of my carbs has a float post that was JB welded. Rather than repairing it by machining it off completely, drilling a new hole and making and inserting a new post, I was thinking to replace the carbs. I will post a thread in the wanted section but not sure everyone will see it and I will have some questions while sourcing the carbs anyway. For example, what model years can i be looking for for my '81 GS750E?....only 1981 or are other model years the same? I see some on eBay but they don't look so great and I trust guys on this forum more than eBay strangers. Does anyone have a set of carbs or know where I can source some?...Is there a GS carb guru on this forum who can lead me to the promised land?

80/81/82 GS750E/L/T that I know for sure, on the 82, you would have to change out the choke linkage.

2 things

1. Post your request in the Parts Wanted forum
2. Tell us which carb body you need. You only need to replace the damaged one

In my original post I did mention that I would also start another thread in the "wanted" section... which I did... but to me it seems that that section is read by mostly people who want something... not have something that someone else wants ...so that's why I posted it here and there. Its carb 1 but what is the likelihood that someone with carbs would sell just the one body?... definitely consider it if someone would split up a set but as the carbs need to be cleaned and rebuilt anyways I thought there might be some other things that come up so a whole set for the right price is also a possibility. if anyone has carb body 1 I'm all ears.

Check with Steve or Chef. They both rebuild carbs and have parts on hand

Quite a few members have excess parts.
