Found these on ebay...

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=280316087368

it had "carbs" in the title and "Excellent working order" in the main description, the price was very good so I bought them. Went back to look afterwards and it turns out they're actually injectors and absolutely not carbs.

Just emailed the seller to say "sort us a refund minus listing fee's and we'll call it quits". Just gonna see what happens now.

Silly silly silly me.

OOOhh, sorry but I think, the balance is in the sellers favor on thios one.
The main descrition shows TB's and injectors.

The description whilst clear if you read it, is still not right. He should have made it clear the throttle bodies were not included in the sale or only shown a picture of the removed injectors. Like most people do.Typical Bike breakers.

I read it that everthing was recieved, just TB's not Carbs

I am a dunce just a reminder to everyone else to read descriptions carefully before buying... And don't get excited. Just threw me off since the rest of the 20 search results were ALL carbs, but about 50 quid more expensive. Hey ho.

Hi Paul,

They might be more amenable to your request if you say to them that you are looking for some carbs and that you will pay the difference if they can do a swap?

Cheers

Refund received minus £2 for listing fee very reasonable seller. Said thanks and asked what they've got in the way of 600/750 carbs

Good result.

I bought the same boies from the same breakers, with the same (wrong) photo! The photo is actually of GSXR600 bodies!

Havig said that, I'm really happy with the hornet bodies on my 2l Silvertop Zetec!

Cheers
