source for keihin floats

[stevendefense]

My carbs started overflowing on my new 73 cb450 the other day. I pulled the bowls off and the left side float was full of fuel. I was going to solder it but I found so many cracks that I am worried that it may be too heavy. I started looking and no one seems to have them in stock, and I am starting to think that they may be discontinued. Does anyone know of a source for the floats?

Is there another way to repair floats? A coating of some sorts that will seal the leaks but not weigh the float down too much?

Its kind of frustrating, I just got the front brakes back together and thought I was ready to ride and now this.

check out www.bikebandit.com, it's the best place I've found for all the parts I need, sometimes I can find the parts cheaper somewhere else, but they're the only place I've found every part I need

Yeah, I think that they are discontinued everywhere.

Im gonna check with the local bike shop tomorrow, but I think Im gonna have to buy some used carbs off of ebay.
