Aye, I was looking forward to this being the first winter I didn't have to store my bike, now that i live in Miami. Trouble was some *** didn't even let me keep it until october when he decided to steal it. He was nice enough to crash it though so i could pay a fortune to have it back and fix it up.

sigh...don't you just love bike thieves...NOT!!!

Well, is that the best way to see if fuel is getting to them? by taking each thing off individually? Cuz then once i know if fuel is in there then i can decide if i need to take the whole damn thing off right? (Please god, i don't want to take the whole thing off)

It is probably going to be easier for you just to take the carbs off as a whole rather than try to clean them on the bike. It isnt difficult just follow the directions in the manual. If you just want to see if there is fuel in the bowls you can drain them using the screws on the bottom of the carb itself. Thats what I did. I am probably still going to take the carbs off and clean them since I don't know the last time that was done...
