You still can get the carb kits from Honda! None better. Clean the brass and reuse it.

Another data point FWIW I just went through the carbs on my '70 K0. I bought the Yamiya kit from them and Honda floats from them. I don't have a lot of experience with this but I am well pleased with their hardware.
