Where to Buy New Carbs?

Does anyone know of a good source to buy new Mikuni carbs? (by "good" I mean cheap!!)
I'm looking for a set of RS34mm flatslides.
Thanks

I've been searching eBay but I'd rather buy new so I know they haven't been "tuned" yet. There's a guy on eBay now that will sell new 36's for $775. I've found prices elsewhere from $700 to $850 (ouch!). I was hoping for around $500-$600. Dream on, right??:lol: :lol:
Maybe someone knows a good supplier.

pingleonline.com has them. They didn't seem too expensive but I guess it's relative.

Pingel is the cheapest by far - a new set is on their way to my house right now!:woohoo:
Even the builder that did my engine for me couldn't match them. Others were as much as $250 higher! The next closest was still over $50 more. Shipping was very reasonable too. Can't wait!:woohoo: :woohoo: Now if the snow would just go away...

Re: Where to Buy New Carbs?

I'm FINALLY ready to try out these brand-new RS34 carbs and I want to make sure all of the settings are correct. I pulled the pilot jet to check the size and can only find "0.8" stamped on it. Is this a 17.5?? I can't find a conversion chart or any info on this at all. I was expecting to see a "17.5" - what's up with that?
Everything else looks right on. I just wanted to make sure I knew what I was starting with from the factory. The manual lists the 17.5's as being installed, but I don't understand the "0.8" thing.
Anyone familiar with these parts?
