Source for 1972 GT550 Carb Kit?
Posted: Wed Jun 10, 2020 7:27 am
Looking for a good source here in the US if possible.
I've had some trouble getting the right carb kit for my Mikuni 34013 "high hat" carburetors. I tried https://www.ebay.com/itm/3x-Suzuki-74-7 ... 2749.l2648 because the images looked pretty similar to what I have - plus the price was great and they shipped that same week. When I tried fitting them, the little ring on the float bowl gaskets that goes around the (IIRC) idle jet tube didn't match up. The pilot air screw is also different in this kit. My carbs don't have a notch for an o-ring on them like what is pictured here.
Then, I went with Cruzinimage's kit that I knew would fit, but costs more and came from Japan https://www.cruzinimage.net/2019/12/19/ ... pair-kits/. Only problem here is I ordered it right as the virus started shutting all flights down around the world. It's been two months since I ordered, and the shipment says it never left its original post office. So Cruzinimage sent me a refund and I'm still on the hunt.
I really just need the float bowl gaskets and O-rings in the screw-on "hat", but it would be nice to have new metal gaskets/washers as well. I figured for all of that I'd be looking at a full carb kit and it wouldn't hurt to have spare parts. Thanks in advance guys!
