Quick Carb Cleaning
 
I Like to now if anyone has written a quick and easy carb cleaning guide other than the sticky one..im a noob on motorcycles so i dont want to go as far as taking the whole carb apart...I've heard of people saying they use some sort of spray on the carbs...anyone?

as in you haz no mechanical experience at all and don't know how to use a screw driver.....popping the carbs takes like 15 minutes... if you wanna be lazy go buy seafoam **** works but doesnt really do the job

what do you plan on doing with this.....

it works by spraying your carbs down with it (i.e taking your carbs apart)

Wanting to clean your carbs without taking them off is like wanting to have sex with a chick without putting it in her. It doesn't work that way dude!

I bought a CBR 600 F2 one month ago and had absolutely no idea how to take apart and clean it. But honestly, a look into the owners manual helped me out a lot. I'd suggest you get a Clymer's repair manual for a CBR F2 or a OEM service Manual from Honda. There's also a video on YouTube on how to clean and take off carbs from an F2 which helped me out tons :D But back to what JesseAwesome said earlier, Seafoam will not work if you don't actually take apart your carbs and clean them. Seafoam can only do so much. It's supposed to be used routinely every once in a while to clean out gunk. And that spray everyone is talking about is called carburetor cleaner, you can pick it up as any automotive parts store.

I think the vid he's referring to is on a F3 - but they're almost identical bikes.
