Figure a new Mikuni Carb from MR Turbo into your cost. Carb parts may not be available for old carb, I upgraded to new carb ten years ago and am glad I did, Maybe new seals or more in the turbo.

BOUGHT THE BIKE HOME. What a time period piece!
1974 Z1A # 28,173 matching engine.

Pennsylvania title.
Says it a 1200 kit with a reworked head. The electrics are pretty hacked up, it has
no electric starter
Turbo needs a bearing on the impeller shaft.
Looks like all the parts are there for turbo too!
Found the original 28mm bottom drain carbs in the box as a bonus
