Just pulled my carbs off and cleaned them last night. No special tools needed, just some basic tools however the racheting screwdriver wrench thingy is a lifesaver and helps from stripping screws. Basically imagine a wrench with a hole on the end that holds screwdriver bits and rachets. Best tool I ever bought!

The main thing is organization. When you pull something apart put a piece of tape on it and label it. Put parts in bags and label them. Take pics with your digital camera for reference. And if you are using any carb cleaner stuff like chem dip make sure you take all of the gaskets off bc it will damage rubber. Other than that take your time and don't rush it and keep organized.

 

Yep. I call it a "service manual". They even give you so far as to give you specs for things like float height! Whodathunkit!

 

ok well the maual i downloaded for here has some specs but it doesnt go into detail about rebuilding the carbs but thanx to everyone who responded

 

I think I saw a post in General Tech maybe a month or so back that had a nice write up on taking them apart for cleaning. Even had photos of everything. Very informative.

if you think they may just be a little gunked up, try running stuff through the tank first. When I got my bike the idle was bad and I was constantly screwing around with it. I ran Seafoam through the tank whcih helped only when it was actually mixed with the gas. When I filled with regular fuel the idle problems were there as was the vibration I had at certain RPMs. I then decided to buy some Lucas fuel system treatment. It is like $5 and comes in a little bottle at the parts store. I dumped a whole bottle into the tank and rode through the whole tank. I noticed an immediate improvement after that first tank. A few tanks later I did it again and it helped even more. Since then the bike idles smooth and at RPMs and I haven't had to add a thig in the last 10-20 tanks.

 

how often should you do something like that , running a cleaner thru the tankl of gas and i believe the carbs need to be rebuilt plus i wanna jet them up

 

If you are going to jet then I wouldn't worry about any cleaner. the cleaner is generally helpful when you have some varnish build up in the carbs. You'll have to disassemble to re-jet so I would just have someone soak them in the cleaner (at the cycle shop)
