Star Twin carbies
« on: 18.07. 2011 13:36 »
These are currently on evil bay in Aus. They are the correct matched pair for a 49' Star Twin. Someone might be interested.

No one bid, the price wasn't too bad.

I'm surprised they didnt sell, its not very often you get the chance to get a correct pair of matched carbies for a Star twin. They were complete except for one bowl top. I enlarged the photos and you could see the slide in one pic and it didnt look too worn so I think there was a good chance they are in reasonable condition. $100 each is not a bad price. It cost me a hell of a lot more than that to build a pair for my bike.

They have been re-listed for $169. Anyone building a Star twin and needing carbies should have a good look.
