carb rebuild kits

[ntintruder]

I have to buy carb rebuild kits for a GL1000 and I am wondering if anybody has a recommendation as to the manufacturer. I have used keyster on 750s and cb350 but I haven't done a GL1000. I wanted Randakk but he's shut down till middle of Sept. so who else would anyone recommend?

It's only two more weeks.

The wait is well worth it for the quality.

Quality parts in both Honda/Randakk but Randakk's is about $70 cheaper here in the US of A.

+1 for Randakks. Top quality, everything you need and nothing you don't AND all the rubber parts are Viton, so not affected by Ethanol.

Do you have widespread Ethanol down under ?

Whatever you do, DO NOT use the Barracuda brand garbage that Saber Cycle sells

yes, we have ethanol. but we have the choice to use it. typically there will be two or three grades of "clean fuel" and other pumps for ethanol.
genuine Honda will always be more expensive, and i believe them to be best, but i have also used these with good results.

i have also sent one particularly troublesome set of carbs to Pistol Pete to be sorted. which leads me to firmly believe. that some carb problems have
less to do with the type of kit used and more with re assembly methods. Pete found things that i had no way of knowing. one slightly bent shaft for example.

Yes, PP did mine as well.

Well worth the $$ to me.
