The Genuine Suzuki ones don't come with the "o" ring seals so you will need to budget for them as well. Having just replaced mine the advantage of new rubbers means refitting the carbs is a doddle compared to fighting the old stiff ones.

It’s an old subject to some but a pain in the ass job for me. My son and me have battled with getting the carbs into place with brute force and various forms of leverage but the end result was the same, no fit. Tried heating the inlets but still no joy. Anyway if at first you don’t succeed give up and retreat. Did that ….. so now something different. Because the carbs were separated I guess alignment is slightly different to the original condition when on the bike so I’ve fitted the inlets to the carbs to prove the effers fit and a sanity check. Also left them on now for several days so hopefully the inlets will remember their place in life. Next I’m going try fitting the carbs with inlet rubbers on the carb. Slide them into position as easy as that and bobs your uncle. If only …..
