    Need new carbs for gs1000

    What should I buy? Any suggestions, just something mild and reliable.

    Stock. Which version, VM26 or CV34, depends on the year of your bike.

      Depends on what bike you have, put that info in your signature & we'll always know.

          Of course, you need to tell us why you need new carbs
          Are they physically broken?

            No they are not broken, I don’t have any. I bought this bike without carbs.

                  Aftermarket carbs are BIG$$$, I have a set of the non CV type still on a GS1000 engine. I believe they are Mikuni VM type, I would have to check in my storage shop where I keep my non running bikes to be sure.
