There's a guy in NZ who sells them on eBay:

http://stores.ebay.co.uk/SMEBIKE

Don't know the exchange rate but shipping wouldn't be too bad!

Or you could try David Silver.

If you are talking about 750's, buy a 750 carb kit from Z1enterprises and you will get new float needles and seats for $17.50

Or for CB500 ($17.04) go to

another fine dealer online for carb parts and they seem to have a nice selection for the sohc set is

http://www.carbkitscapital.com/motorcycle_carb_kit_main.php?make=Honda

prices are great, shipping is a week or so from order usually.
