Goldwing GL1000 78 to 79 Carburetor Assy 2 R Complete 771A #3 16104-431-004

# 3 78 and 79 771A Carburetor, Complete with choke-cable stay and cross-link. On the shelf for at least 22 years, high and dry. Dis-assembled to check. All jets were clean, all parts moveable, no corrosion. The vacuum slider is extraordinarily good, the cap, the jets, float, needle-valve, linkages and all other aspects are excellent. The base gasket is supple and reusable. The plastic on the top cap is not dried out, nor cracked. This picture as dis-assembled shows it as it was opened: clean inside. The minor downside: the base body mounts need to be re-tapped to 5mm on two of the base screws, hex recommended, and all 4 should be done to balance it . That is the only thing that keeps this from being an "A" quality carburetor that has escaped the effects of 45 years. Get this synchronized to your set, and this will be basically a pop n' drop unit. Priceless, but the price shown reflects the fact that it needs 15 minutes of drill and tapping and 4 new hex screws.

USA REQUIRED TARIFFS ARE INCLUDED IN THE PRICE, NO duties due at delivery

PLEASE NOTE: Regardless whether the part attracts a tariff or not, we have REDUCED ALL PRICING by 35%, so there are some extremely good deals happening.

Only about 350 of 2850 of our available parts require tariffs to be paid when shipped to the USA. Prices for GL1000 parts [made in Japan], any GL1800 parts produced after 2010 [made in Japan] are higher for my American friends, and this is why:
Effective August 29 2025: No tariffs on Goldwing parts from models made from 1980 to 2010: they were made in the USA. Prices on parts from pre-1980 and post-2010 Goldwing models, to US citizens (of which I have over 6000 really great people as customers), now include a tariff-tax, a customs brokerage fee, and a per item Customs document admin fee.
The costs, when they apply, must paid BY THE SELLER ON BEHALF OF THE BUYER, on ALL goods NOT MADE IN THE USA. That is the new USA tariff tax as of Aug 29th 2025: and it is USA law, and is effectively a tax on all products not *Made in the USA*.

OTHERS: PLEASE NOTE :   

All customers outside of the USA who are buying "TARIFFED" items on the Straightwings site WILL BE REFUNDED 30% of the ITEM PRICE to remove those added costs, after purchase, based on your country which is not the USA.

Just buy what you need and we will refund the amount as above. We are working hard to encode the variances in our site-programming to segregate the pricing between the countries to account for the tariff taxes which may be due as is mandated by the US government but not other countries.

It is a very expensive and time-costly effort for us to help all *Goldwingers* to obtain often-rare parts when you are in the USA, but as well to be fair to all the buyers in outside the USA who are not subjected to that tax: but I will NOT desert my USA clients. I have worked hard for 25 years to make available quality parts which aid Goldwing riders. While the tariffs are most unfortunate between neighbours, the parts we sell are still great parts, properly assessed, at the fairest price possible. I hope all my USA customers understand this, and continue to patronize StraightWings, a premier Goldwing quality used parts site.
