I´m trying to get my 850 special on the road and with riding weather here I still have a couple roadblocks

Most important is i need a new carb or carb body

I would also like to know if it can be converted to chain drive for ease of repair in that area.

The ground clearance is a little low for the roads where I live. Is there a front end from another bike that would give me 1 or 2 more inches that would fit, or a 21" cruiser wheal may give me the clearance I need

PARTS! PARTS! PARTS! Where can I find them?
