I Know this is a long shot, But I have just acquired (from the US) a fairly early 72 Z1, Frame No. around 1300, it has the wrong Carbs, 4/1 Pipes and wrong seat for starters,
I don't suppose anyone can help?
Thanks Frank

The common model!

Early ribless carbs are very hard to come by. All I can say is good luck.

A guy in the states occasionally sells the early ribless carbs and he normally asks $3,000 for them. You will have to set up an alert on ebay for when he does sell the next set.

There are a set on USA ebay at the moment for $3500.00 and you are in luck as he ships to the UK.

Hi Frank, keep an eye on German and USA Ebay a decent set of early carbs were sold earlier this year for £650, bide your time and you Won't have to pay the earth.

I did see that set of carbs for $3500
seems a bit excessive!

Thanks to a much apprechiated tip off from a forum member I have bought a set of ribless carbs, one slight problem with them is left hand carb body is damaged, so I am looking for just the one now if anybody has one knocking about.
Many thanks
Frank
