Hey all, so I’m building an ‘81 Suzuki gs450T, just got home from school for the summer and am anxious to get some things done so she’ll run again. First thing being cleaning and rebuilding the carbs. However it seems impossible to find any carb kits or even just the gasket, which is the main thing I’m needing, that are listed as compatible with that particular year and model of bike. Have any of you worked with this bike or know of what will work with it? Thanks a million for any help!

The early carbs had problems with slide needles getting worn on one side and then you could not adjust the idle even when all else was perfect. We are talking about 1969. When the First Honda CB750's were introduced.
