Dennis Kirk has your stems ($10 each). Since you've never done bike carbs, I'd highly recommend purchasing a Clymer shop manual and studying up first.
You'll need to remove the rack (of four carbs) from the bike, but I'd advise not disassembling the rack any further (separating the carbs from one another is unneccessarily complicated). Here's a link to an innovative and inexpensive cleaning method that seems to work pretty well: http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=560117 I'd also recommend purchasing a set of good quality screwdrivers and take your time with take down and reassembly. The cover screws and brass jet pieces are fragile and easily damaged. On Feb 8, 2:12 am, Dean May <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey my name is Dean and I am new to this group.
