..Anyone have a set of 34mm roundslides they want to part with for a reasonable price? Like a twat I sold my set last year to go back to standard 38mm CV's..Big mistake - Hate 'em..will do a part-ex if neccessary, have a few sets left...Cheers

I have a pair of used roundslides. They were on the last motorcycle I bought, which would not run above an idle. The install was done by a poorly trained monkey (or maybe two of them). I don't even know if the jetting matches across the set. But they are intact. You'll have to clean 'em up and check the jetting.

What's a fair price?

On an XS ? Ive got to bear in mind at worst case it could cost me up to £100 to totally re-jet them..Can you PM me price-wise ? Thanks mate

i have a set of carbs off a 81 xs650 34's i believe. Only thing wrong with them is when i was trying to get the brass caps of the mixture screws things went ary. i got one off and stripped the screw head and when i tried to extract it with an ez out the ez out broke off in it. ($30 set of crap) and the other cap has yet to be removed but was worked on to get it off then gave up after the other one went wrong. Give me a price you'd wanna pay and we can go from there. not sure how to pm and if you dont email me at borjawil @ msu.edu. Diaphrams are in good shape as are the slides.
