    Dear Brainiacs.

    I would like you guidance regarding the above bikes carbys.

    Could any one advise me regarding where i can locate the best place to obtain a set of gasket or original rubber seals for the bowl .
    I have tried on eBay carbie kits and all have advised that they don't fit.
    Is this correct or is there an alternative to use?
    Or should a just get some gasket paper and make them myself?
    I have enclosed photos of the bowl and carbie for your perusal and advise.
    I have double checked serial number of bike and confirm it is the right model
    Could I use a carbie kit off eBay and just cut down the gaskets ?
    Does anyone know if any other models of xj750 carby kits would fit


    Thanks

    Tony

    For those who are wondering (the original poster has already realized this), those are not the original carbs for his bike (Hitachi), they are Keihin carbs.
