Carb

 

hey everyone, i am in need of a carb for a 1972 Honda XL250.  I know it is
the same for a few years but i am not for sure how many.  If you know where
i could get one or have one just let me know.  I have already checked ebay
and wasn't satisfied with what i saw.  Thanks

ebay seems to turn up carbs for almost anything over a few
days - maybe weeks if it is rare.  keep in mind that many of
these carbs can be subbed with carbs from other makes or the
manufacturers like mikuni or keihn if you know what you are
looking for.  for instance, if you have a mikuni carb, run a
search for mikuni carb and you will turn up bunches of
mikuni carbs.  one of them may be exactly what you need.
what's wrong with your carb? need rebuilding? you can also
find kits for them and they are simple to rebuild with the
instructions that come in the kits.

there are also places like Steve's cycle salvage in tifton,
ga all ove the net that may be able to help you by searching
for motorcycle salvage in google.  they should have a way to
contact them via e-mail to inquire about a part.

is there a specific carb that would be better than another one?  I don't
have the original so im just curious.

 

Danny, I have a OEM carb for a Honda XL250. Came on an engine I bought
recently. I have no idea if it works. It will need a good cleaning. $10
plus actual shipping fees, and it's your's.
