Here is an excellent 9 page write up w/ pics on cleaning carbs...its specifically authored for the Suzuki GS bikes, but its basically the same for any CV carb. The GSResources - Carb Rebuild Pg. 1 of 9 |
Thanks, Keeena...funny you should mention it...once I saw those screw heads, I remembered a thread on here about JIS specs, and how rare the tools were availabilty-wise in the USA. That was when I started gritting my teeth! Frustrating, to say the least. You know of any local parts stores or stealers who stock them? I think theyre only available online? Thanks for the link too....
