I have a 1985 Honda 250sx, I have the original carburetor but a lot of the pieces are missing and it's locked up. I ran a search for a new 1985 sx carburetor, I found a link in a post to Wincycles on ebay (the post was a few years old). They do not offer the carburetor on ebay anymore, I've sent them an email and have called but have not gotten a response either way. So I've been looking at carburetors online and every time I read the reviews they do not fit a 1985. What is the best aftermarket carburetor and where do I get it? It's all stock with the exception to the aftermarket exhaust pipe.

There is a gentleman on here that does a really great job rebuilding oem carbs. Flying W is his user name. I will text him. He might have one ready to go. I highly recommend them.

Here's FlyingW's thread on rebuilding the 250es/sx/350x carb. Even if you're not doing it your self, you can see what kind of work he does by the photos. Never seen a bad word about his work yet, he might even be interested in your old carb.

And his must be the only price in the world that hasn't gone up in the last several years. That's what he charged me back in 2014 when he did mine. It's still going strong too.

I just picked up a 250sx. If you can fit in another carb Flywingw, could you rebuild mine?

Just an update Flyingw did a fantastic job! Looks like a brand new carb, and it's never ran better! Thanks to everyone who hooked me up with him and a huge Thank You to Flyingw for rebuilding it for me!

It may be faster to send him a PM.
