carb questions for 82 honda cm250c

i am wondering what kind of options i would have for these carbs. i recently found out that they no longer make the rebuild kits for that carb because it is not an original honda part. so i was wondering if anyone knew any other carbs that would bolt to it. ior any way to get my original one restored. any suggestions would be much appretiated. thanks

maybe you could tear them apart and get lucky enough to save everything in there....unless it has the old brass or aluminum floats......

I think jet is right. If you're careful when disassembling the carbs, you can re-use all the parts. After all, the main culprit in carbs is blockage in the small ports. Be sure to completely disassemble, taking note of the number of turns with the air bleed screws. The used compressed air in every passage. Follow each passage and take your time and be sure each one is clear. I like to use brake cleaner after with the straw on the can to verify each passage is clear. Give it a little shot and watch where it comes out. Do that to all passages plus clean the needle valve carefully. That's the one that the float controls like a toilet tank.
