    78 carbs? 4 fuel inlets???

    I've got a spare set of carbs from a 78 standard I believe - they just came with the parts bike. The question: They have (4) fuel inlets. (2) in the normal position and (2) more sligthtly higher. Is that right? How does that work? Does anyone need them? If so, I can either sell em as is, or get them running (install them on my bike) and sell them. How do you think I would come out better?

    The 2 slightly higher are breather vents, not inlets.

        no free bike - just unding my bike to get the carbs dialed in... Let me know if you want em as is or ready to run - that is what I meant.
