    Need a New Rack of Carbs for 1980 GS 550

    I am looking for a new rack of Carbs for my GS 550 I just got. The person I got it from left gas sit in it for about 2 years and the rack I have now is destroyed with no hopes of salvaging. So if anyone out ther knows of anyone to go to I will listen. I refuse to go to SS 2 wheel in Aurthur Il they already ripped me off 100 bucks

    Thanks for the info

    What do you mean by "destroyed"? I only ask because if it's a matter of some stripped parts and nothing is broken, then it may just be the task of getting the stripped parts out and "dipping" the carbs in Berryman's carb dip or a similar product. Otherwise, if nothing's available in the For Sale section here, then E-bay may be an option.

      Destroyed in the sense that the float needles are so rusted/corroded that they can't be removed and the area that hold the floats in place (in 2 of the 4 carbs) has a broken peice of the cast..

            Finally got the set I've been looking for, That's for Sac Cycle in California for the great service and wonderful set of carbs I'll be ripping the old ones out this week sometime. Once I do I'll post Pics of how bad they really were
