Yamaha R1 Carbies

Hi Guys,
 
I want to do the bike carb conversion using carbs from the above bike.  It needs to be from a bike up to 2001 I believ as this is when the moved to injection.
 
If no one has one is there a wrecker in Melbourne I can get a cheap set from that someone can recomend?
 
Many thanks
 
Matt

    Go to Vic Bike Wreckers in Heidelberg. They will have them for sure as they are pretty much the largest bike wrecker in Melbourne.

    Thanks G, You rock!
     
    I am loking at a set from the USA which landed should be less than $200 AUD.
     
    Fingers crossed.

    I got my complete set, manifold, accessories and ignition set up from Chester Sports Cars in the UK.

    I lived there for 6 years and had one of their kit cars with a Zetec and motorbike carb conversion.
    I am going to run this set up on my MK1 and 1600 xflow when it is ready, hopefully for the 2012 RSOCV Concourse.
    A little more expensive, but a proven solution.
