78-79 carb body swap?

02-19-2013, 11:14 PM

Hey all,

I have extra #1 and #2 carbs bodies from a 78-79 xs11 and am looking to swap for a good #4. Only issue is that the #1 has a broken tip from the pilot screw stuck in it.

Anyone need a #1 or #2 and have a #4 to trade?

Thanks!

If you swap the throttle plate shafts, you can use the #2 in place of the #4.
