Wanted: 2 small carb 6mm overflow hose clamps

Hello, looking for 2 or 4 OEM little spring clamps for the carburetor 6mm overflow hoses.
Them little pesky bastards, that I always threw out over the years.
I do have 2, but a nice matching set would be nice.
Local Kaw dealer is no help.
Here is the picture.
Thanks.

K&L makes a bunch of sizes. You can get the here at Rocky Mountain ATV. Really though any shop that is a distributor for K&L should be able to order them,

Hi Greg, cool, I can use 2 of them. OEM are flat, ends are horizontal with the clamps. Thanks to the guys that sent replies. But I am looking for the originals.
Glad you got the hose OK.
That is the hose I am going to sell the Z1 28mm carbs with.
Thanks, need any info? PM me.

Thanks!

Hi Greg, that's the new address. I sent you a PM.
Finally got my self out that ghetto Buffalo, at least my old hood!
I'm out in the Suburbs now! I have not heard a loud Sub Woofer in the last 6 months. I love it!
Only draw back is only a 1 -1/2 car garage. But I put my 60 Gallon compressor in the basement, save some space in the garage, and I can use it in the shoproom inside the cellar. Gonna run the airline out in the spring.
Let me know if you need anymore info.

Thanks again.

Hello Greg, thanks for mailing the small clamps.
These are close, but they still are not as small as the OEM originals.
I can pull them together, will make them tighter.
But thanks again, good luck with all your projects, If I come across any thing burried away I'll contact you.

Still want any 265 or 270 shims?

I could not even sell them on ebay for 2 bucks a piece? But then again, those were always the starting point for the factory. Everyone has those size's. And don't need them. I guess? When you need adjustment you go to other sizes'
Thanks again Greg!
