      I might be willing to offer one of my spare carbs, but you have not given us any hint what bike you are talking about.
      We can only assume it's a GS because you are on this board, but a hint at the bike would be real helpful.

      In fact, if you take a few moments to add it to a sig line, you won't have to think to add it every time you ask a question.

        Just get it tig welded. You can probably walk in to welding shop and get it done while you wait. It shouldn't cost much and will last forever.
