I presume that you are just after the O rings and that's a good price for the set. I fiddled around and bought the various sizes separately on ebay, but buying small quantities of Viton O rings ain't cheap and although I got enough for 8 carbs, probably didn't save any money.

Send Gerben a message via ebay, he still may be able to help you. If not I would go for the Cruzinimage kit and avoid Keyster kits.

Have used 4 sets of Cruzinimage carb parts on various bikes all with good results. Cruzinimage gaskets however, have caused me great problems as have the carb rubbers.
