          Yep, it's me. I stand by all statements in front of everyone. The video link is of the carbs on my '81. In the vid, my bike was right out of the garage in the morning, dead cold. It fired first try and could quickly be taken off of the enricher circuit and it was only about 50-60 degrees out. I put a lot of time and effort into my carbs. As a recent college grad, I am on the job hunt and trying to turn a dime doing something I know a little something about. And, these are also the 80 G carbs from the rubber plug thread.

          As for their worth, I will be VERY upset to see them go for anything under $200. My last set went for 305 to some dude with a bunch of other issues with his XS. It sounds like he was looking for the magic carb cure, when unfortunately, we all know that carbs are the very last piece in the troubleshooting puzzle. (I am beginning to see Mr. Meatloaf's side more and more )
