Yeah man the Carbtune uses solid metal rods - recommend you get one


BTW send/pm me the diameter of the base those spools pls

 

Pulled the carbs and cleaned them, new fuel filter. Still waiting on the brakes, I hate usps

 

I've got the Carbtune Pro as well. A great bit of kit.

 

Got to ask - how's the gas tank - any rust ?

 

Surprisingly no, the guy I got the bike from said the bike sat for about a year but to my relief the tank is clean. I did pull the petcock to clean it and the damn thing was clogged with the crap you can put in a leaking tank, cleaned that, drained and rinsed out the tank with some left over 87 octane, got a new fuel filter, then cleaned the carbs. Now the gas is as clear as can be and she's running 10 times better

 

not sure if you know or not sprock, but for the air/fuel mixture on the bottom of the carbs, are they capped or does it just require a special tool? I know the air/fuel mixture screws on a lot carbs are just capped from the factory, just drill 'em out and you're good to go, but on mine they look like no caps have been removed but instead may need a special tool. Wasn't sure so I figured I'd ask before drilling into something hoping for the best haha

 

D socket from motion pro are needed for Mk3 Carb Pilot needles which are on the
front (motor intake) side of each carb body

thanks man, I took the redneck way out of it and used a dremel to just cut a slit down the center of it. Flathead works fine now haha

 

Replaced the front brake pads, was going to delink the brakes but I just didn't feel like driving to lowes and spending more money

 

Anyway I can get a pick of this? I can not find where my air/fuel screws are....
