Rebuilt carbs.
royhall:
This guy looks like he does good work http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-CB500-CB550-four-4-rebuilt-set-of-carbs-complete-/121844169709?&_trksid=p2056016.l4276
Anybody used his stuff before. Prices look good as well.
hairygit:
But did you notice in the description that he states NOT to use fuel containing ethanol, as it can be a disaster with these old carbs? That basically means they cannot be used within the EU, unless you have the time to remove the ethanol yourself!

I think that statement should be applied to all old carbs shouldn't it. He's probably just making the point that Ethanol does actually eat these carbs alive, and your tanks and fuel lines etc.
Don't think that would reflect on the standard of his work which looks top drawer.
Am going to email him later and see if he does refurbishments of a customers own carbs, and prices.
Would be good to find somebody reliable at a cheap price. I hate doing the things myself, worst part of any rebuild for me.
JamesH:
Gerbens work is superb. Period.

Thought there are a couple of brands of petrol that dont contain ethanol, cant remember which though.
