Unless you have a big ultrasound cleaner or have a buddy with one then that's gonna be at least £80, then there's the new float that looks as if its melted, rebuild kits arent cheap, snapped idle jet and the general state of these carbs.

I have tried this approach before and they are just on and off the damn bike so many times you will be pulling your hair out, trust me... at a guess you would be putting down almost £200 anyway!

You can get a decent set from a breaker or parts you can put together for possibly sub £100, ebay, facache marketplace etc.

Just my two cents!

Yep, what "he said, just get another set of carbs fella those have seen far better days and as the man said they will more as likely be a pain in the *** to sort and at more expense than a replacement set BUT if you "do buy another set get the seller to remove the float bowls and send you pictures so you KNOW what you are buying.
