Well have fun looking...
They go for up to 500€ used on German or UK eBay... That would be around 750$... plus shipping... (About 1000$ new here in Sweden)
That is if you through a small miracle happen to find one... I have been looking for a while now...
I'm thinking I'll go for a VFR one instead... that's even bigger plus it's a lot easier to find and cheaper...

Usually for insurance purposes... Some countries had in the late 90'ies rules that made it a lot cheaper to register and insure a big displacement "sportstourer" once it was restricted... the only difference is a small ring in the carb rubber inlet...
Also some rules regarding what licence was required to operate a restricted vs non-restricted bikes in some countries...
In Sweden many of them came factory restricted to 72kW...

"No offense, but it would seem to me that it would be a little bit more, um....economical to just buy the Euro mixture screws and have them sent across the pond."
I wish I'd thought of that
I had a problem removing the cap on my emissioned carbs.The drill slipped and gouged out the carb casing. I looked for a parts broker.....and 2 days later a set of almost new carbs at my door step in Newquay, Corwall, England. Linkage,hoses, and boots included.
