$1000 set of 29's!!!

A set of 29's sold for $1000 today on ebay. time to start combing the wrecking yards! :ohmy:

That is great news for all current 29 owners...it is sad news for those of us who'd like to own a set of 29's:(

Interesting that the seller didn't know how to remove a couple of head-stripped pilot jets and still got $1K for that set hehe

i saw that and damn near fell out of my seat and he couldn't get the pilots jets out if he could have, he would have been able to get 1500 out of them for sure. what is the crazy part is that some body actually fell for his speil and paid that kind of money in the first place.

Crazeeness!:ohmy:

del.

yep i have retired from racing i have now gone into the used racer parts business. apperently my own collection is worth a fortune.

also if 29's are worth a 1000 how much is a set of 33's worth. i have 2 sets so that should be enough for a down payment on a house

The guy who had the auction wrote:

WOW! THIS VM29 HAS AIR SCREWS WITH BLUNT TIPS - THE TYPE CARBURETOR WHERE THE VERY SHARP PILOT MIXTURE SCREWS ARE BOTH SUZUKI BS32/34 AND VM26. THE SCREWS ARE EXTREMELY SHARP AND THE HOLES ARE MUCH SMALLER THAN A SIMILAR KAW VERION OF EITHER TYPE OF THESE MIK CARBS. I ROUTINELY REMOVE THESE BROKEN OFF TIPS AS IT IS JUST PART OF DOING WORK ON SUZUKI CARBURETORS. I AM STUNNED THIS GUY HAS NEVER REMOVED A BROKEN TIP. wg

Thats why George is the man!

for that kind of money you might as well spend a few more bucks andfind a turbo!:laugh:

It's sickening....

Damn, for another $500 you can buy a complete KZ1000 with 28/29mm carbs, motor, frame, rims, etc...

WTF is the matter with these people that bid on these extremely over priced parts... One they either have way too much money or two they're that friggin stupid.

Hell, I should put my new in the box Keihin 29mm CR Specials and set the reserve at double what I paid just to see what happens.

No disrespect intended towards the mentally disabled but these people are truly RETARDED!
