So I have an '83 kz550 c4 ltd. My carb holders have leaks and I'm trying to find new ones. Or used ones in great shape. I found some on z1 but don't want to pay $83 unless I have no other choice. I've checked ebay and thought this was the best place to ask for help. Anyone know of a part that will cross-reference or where to get some replacements? The kaw part number is 16065-1014. Thanks for any help.

If the part cross-references, it's likely going to be about the same cost.


FWIW, $83 is actually a fair deal for a set of four.
The average price at most Kawi stealerships is around $25+ each! :pinch:

CYCLE-PARTS.com has them, but they are only slightly cheaper than if bought at a Kawi dealer at $22.42 each. :dry:

They cost that much because they are genuine Kawasaki OEM parts. I would send Jeff a pm and ask him if they have anything after market.

Thanks everyone, found them through parkeryamaha.com, for only $18, not bad, had to be done though. They seem to have really good prices on genuine kaw items.
