try ebay, and dennis kirk should be a little cheaper then the dealer. also try a search on mikuni carbs, probaly will come up with some places and prices.

a replacement of the same carb might be best, mikuni is the best carb, that is a roundslide i think, i dont know if a flatside is better for the machine or not.

whats wrong with the mikuni brand why do you want to change?
