my carbs

You're right, they look nothing like what I sent in. The bike was a "barn find." A friend of mine at church had this bike sitting for 4 years without touching it until he rolled it out for me to buy on Wednesday. Got it home and tried to drain the tank via the petcock but it was gummed up in there. I pulled the petcock apart and cleaned it out and put in some fresh gas. Jumped it off and was able to get it to run, albeit very poorly (it would make it down my driveway but not back up, it's very steep). Sent my carbs off the next day and am expecting them (pictured above) back tomorrow or Wednesday. Should have the bike back to rideable as soon as I get them in. Now street legal is something else, I am waiting on the slow boat from China with my front turn signals. I'll update again with results when I get the carbs in.

Thank you Gordon for the quick, professional service!
