RG500 float bowl

#1 Post by 2strklvr » Sun Mar 28, 2021 9:07 pm

In search of front RHS carburetor float bowl for my Gamma. Hoping that someone may have a spare they would be willing to part with. Willing to purchase entire carb if needed.

Updated the OP to indicate what carb the bowl is needed for although truthfully I thought it looked like the bowl on the rear right hand carb was the same. I will have to take a closer look tomorrow.

Hello,

I have some spare RHS parts, do you have anything for the LHS?

No, sorry. I have a few spare RG bits & pieces but no carb parts at all.

Well maybe we could work together to help us both out? We are relatively close too.
Is it worth asking if you know any places that might have spare bits?
I need a great deal of stuff really, if you want to suggest your spares.

Had a closer look tonight. Suspect all carb bowls and floats are the same.

Sorry for the late reply.

I don't know of anyone that has RG parts, but I do have a few things myself. I really need to look at the spares I have, but off the top of my head I know that I have a complete set of forks, front rotors, front calipers and master cyl with braided steel lines, oil tank, rear fairing stay/rear fender & signal mount, CDN spec front & rear signal lamps, battery box and I am not sure what else. LMK if you need any of the listed items and in the mean time I will have a look and see if there is any other stuff I have forgotten about.

Just remembered that I also have a swingarm, rear shock and linkage as well as the two lower silencers.
