    Time for carb rebuild

    Can anyone tell me were to get rebuild kits? I checked both bike bandit.com and denis kirk and neither of them list a compleat rebuild kit. I found them on ebay but would rather not do business on ebay if I dont have to.

    Dennis Kirk has the K&L kits for about $22 per carb body. As I remember, it has new mains, pilots and air jets, new float needles, float needle seats, needle seat filters, mixture valves, all o-rings, float bowl gaskets and some other junk I don't think I even used. Just about the only thing on the carbs not included that is replaceable is the needle itself, the slide diaphragm, and the choke plungers.

      Oh, also make sure you are ordering from the Dennis Kirk catalog, not the web. They have everything, and I mean everything. But for some reason thier website is extremely limited. Either order the catalog or call them.

          The kits I got did not have the float themselves. They rarely need replacing, but you can buy them seperately.
