Set #1 is off what I think is a later year 900.  It has gold anodized slides and air screws.  Set #2 is from an early 1000, and has fuel screws.  I've also got a set of BS/CV carbs, almost finished, that I'll be selling as well.

$575 each set, shipped CONTUS, if you pay via paypal "family and friends."

Each set is fully rebuild.  PM with specific details.  

I've sold similar sets on ebay for $700 + tax + shipping.  I'd rather see them go to someone here though.

Those two are probably the most stable carbs that KHI put on their bikes back then.  I have a set off a KZ900 that I use on my 1980 KZ1000.  Very easy to adjust.  I actually prefer them over my VM28SC carbs on my Z1B.
I have several restored bikes along with a 2006 Goldwing with a sidecar. My wife has a 2019 Suzuki DR 650 for on and off road.

For you guys sick of looking at VM's.  These carbs came of a Canadian spec 1000 or 1100.  Honestly, they are a creampuff set.  The float valve needles had no visible wear, and the diaphragms are smooth and clean.  It's getting hard to find sets in this condition anymore.

So, Wheelhop traded me a crate of cores, for one of my full monty restored VM26 sets, and now I'm going through these cores and rebuilding what I can.

First up is a set of BS34 CV's from a 1100J or 1100 shaft, and second, a set of early Keihin CV34's from a 750.  These rebuilds are functional focused, not cosmetic.  I'll get some photos up soon, and they don't look bad by any means, but they are not as pretty as my other sets.  The price is lower too, since they are less work.  I'm waiting on a couple of parts, but they are 90% done now.  Photos coming soon...

Thanks!  Those last three sets came from Wheelhop's "crate".  I've also got a set of restored GS VM26's.

Thank YOU!  I've been in the garage almost constantly since your crate arrived.  Each set has provided some unique challenges, but so far, so good.  Lots of little things to chase down, such as float bowls, pilot screws, jets, building fuel Tee's, stuff like that.  The Suzuki VM set proved the most challenging, even though they looked like creampuff's on the outside.  All GOOD!
