Malc (Yorkshire engines) was selling a couple of sets of these carbs a month or so ago.
He was charging £70 including postage (UK mainland) and knowing Malcs stuff, they'll have been low mileage examples...

I paid less than £100 for Eight Throttle bodies off Ebay. Honda 38mm ones for my Rover V8 Engine

Sounds a tad expensive to me, unless they are absolutely perfect, and totally complete.

seller claims they are complete (ready to fit on the bike) and have less than 8000km on them...

will it be fine for the pinto though? i've searched on this but should i wait for the R1 carbs instead?t
thanks for the prompt replies!
