Stupid Carb Mistake

DesignBuild
So its winter, I've torn down my bike for maintenance and just a good cleaning. I have taken my carbs. apart and cleaned them several times in the past, but for some reason this time i forgot about the destructive power that carb. cleaner has on rubber.

So here in lies my problem, the tips on what i think is my float valves (i've never taken the time to learn the technical names for all this), and my rubber stoppers have all but dissolved completely. I have found only one place that sells a set of 4 carb kits for a reasonable price, but have only been able to find the plugs for older models.

Does anyone know of a good reasonable priced place that has the rebuild kits and or the plugs? The bike is a 82' CB750F DOHC.

If it helps i can post pictures of the parts I'm talking about.

Thanks guys.

For some reason they are selling them as a 6 pack. Z1 is good though

partsnmore.com also seems pretty decent. I got stuff from both places and it has always been good.
The ride IS the adventure. The destination is just to get gas!

This site is perfect, way cheaper than ordering the whole rebuild kits for them, and it looks like they have the plugs as well. Thanks, I'm sure I'll end up using this Z1 in the future too.
