I have a set of 26's that I will be doing this winter, I'd be happy if they looked half as good as those.
Are they going on your 78?[/quote

They were on my 78, seems like ever since the Colorado run they been giving me problems.
The bike sat till November before I ran it and it still had the cheap gas that I was putting in on the flag run. It was leaking gas out the number 3 carb and the fuel vale wasn't turning off. So I replaced the valve and decided to got through the carbs.

Thanks Eddie, I think I'll start checking around my area for a used one, no hurry I have all winter.
The original 26's that are on my now run great once the mains open up but but I am having trouble tuning the low end.
I believe there is some crud in the pilot circuits that I'm just not getting.
All and all the bike still runs real good but I have a set of carbs off my 77 that I'll be tearing apart to clean.
It will be nice to have another set to see if these issues go away.
