:confused:

Do I need to buy the entire carb assembly for just this part? It's not listed as a separate part on the microfishe.. Or maybe someone has one here?

BTW, looks like I have John Dugan's old R6. At least it says DUGAN on the ignition box and I see Dugan in WMRRA results for year 2000 on R6.

Would the previous owner please stand up? The guy I got the bike from simply stored it for like two years and doesn't really know much about what's up with that bike. It sure needs some love now. I'm guessing it changed hands more than once or twice before.. It'd be nice to know what's the history and I might also missed some important things that need attention.

The race fairing it came with has #261. It has street front now..

Related question: anyone knows a place that would know how to weld a piece of sheetmetal in there?

Bump - any ideas? I'm going to get a piece of sheetmetal and cut out the shape that will fit on top of the wheel and fill in the missing part. Then epoxy it over and call it a day.

I called a few junk yards and they all told me the same thing - they don't separate carbs so in order to get the part I'll have to just get an entire carb.
