I am helping a friend rebuild a cb360, does anyone know where to get a GOOD carb rebuild kit?

Thanks

Year is a 74, I know some are good and some are bad so any info would be great.

Don't buy a damn thing until you confirm the CV diaphragms does not have hole because if they do you might as well start looking at Mikuni VM's.

Thanks Sean,

the slides were stuck and an absolute nightmare to remove. We finally got em out. I diaphragms looked good to me, no larg tears or anything. Is there a Way to test em??

 You basically need to hold them in your fingers gently and carefully look for any tears or pinholes and feelhow pliable the rubber is.

Well... looks like we need new diaphragms... or new carbs. Seems like replacing the diaphragms is a pain. Gonna try these jbm unless someone has another suggestion.

Thanks

yep, JBM industries is really the only source i've found. folks have had mixed results with them though. I've used then on one set of carbs and they seemed fine, but i didn't have that bike for very long. search over at Do The Ton or Vintage Honda Twins for more info.
