Postby salzig hund » Wed May 15, 2013 9:35 pm

Could someone leme borrow two screws for a carb bowl cover and the two rear mounting bolts and hi front mount bolt?!? 1982 cb650

One bowl had a water leak and (after sitting for 20 years rusted into the carb). Th front top and bottom rear mount bolts were missing :(

You can pick these up at the local hardware store. Just take samples in so you'll know what size you need.

PM me your address.

I replace all the screws with SS when I do a set so I have a zillion of the crappy screws that came stock. I'll send you a few

This is a source of a cheap kit with ALL the special o-rings you need for your carbs. He will also sell you ALL the screws you need to convert to SS cap screws

That's odd. Sometimes I'll cut bolts to the proper length with a Dremel tool.

The source cgswss10 mentioned above is good. I get all my O rings from Sean--and he ships a complete set (with spares) for just $5.

I emailed him. Yeah, if they had a set that was long enough to match the rear bolts. the closest is off by an inch... I didn't ask if they could call the next town branches, but a bolt is an easy find. Thought I'd ask if anyone had a spare. Of to LA next weekend.
