Looking for a pair of carbs for my spare 82 XS650 engine, preferably in the US & the Midwest is even batter.
All I ask is that they're complete and not damaged or altered.
They can need work and I don't care what year they're from as long as they're from an XS650. They would be destined for my spare engine so I don't need factory fresh since I have all the time in the world to clean them up or go through them. In fact, I enjoy fixing snotted & gummed up carbs that weren't drained as long as they're not gored out or something.
Personally I kind of like the lever choke ones, but what do you have just laying around practicing gravity? Cheaper is better, like me! 
Cheers,
- JJ

| I have a pair of 36 mm Mikuni roundslides that were on my bike when I bought it. I pulled them off and replaced them with 34 mm roundslides. One of them is missing a needle clip. Otherwise they're all there. Clean 'em up, replace that needle clip and re-jet them, get some proper manifolds for 'em and a set of cables, you're ready to go.
