    I'm looking at the carb rebuild kits on ebay and partnbuild more. Is it worth replacing the float need? Or should I just find out o-ring sizes and order them?

      Dont get the rebuild kits. Just get a kit from cycleorings,com. Rebuild kits are a waste of money due to your buying inferior stuff and stuff you wont need is left over.

      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.

        Cycleorings only has a kit for the 80-82 gs450 not the 83-88

          I have a large supply of orings from Robert. Take some pics of the ones you need along with the ID and OD measurements and I can see what I have. You can have them free if I have them.

          Youll need the fuel tube, mixture screw, and the float seat orings for sure.

            I'm going to shoot him an email and see if the 24ring kit has the right sizes.

              Another quick question - I have been trying to find a service manual for this bike, but I haven;t had any luck. Can anyone provide any info about the stock settings on the carb for when I rebuild it.
