    Carbs to burn

    Try this company they're Canadian. I have used them and was SO pleased with the service and parts list,u need carb cleaner from Napa,Or Carwest. make sure it is the pro stuff for carb soak .Also have the Claimer's manual as s a great carb rebuilding section. Hope this helps. Don't be afraid to do this work just wach out for the two very small springs ,they fly out at warp speed and are not replaceable. if you need help just pm me..:thumbsup:

    Just In Case....

    What year and engine size ??

    Seems like the fuel inlet T-fitting to your carbs has cracked or an o-ring/s has deteriorated, although a bad float valve could also be the problem.

    IF you want professional carb service??



    Carb service specialist:

    With over 30 years experience working on carbs from exotic sportscars, racecars to bikes, and having owned many VFRs/ Hawks ( and lots of other bikes mostly from the 80s and 90s) over the past 24 years, i feel i'm well qualified to offer carb cleaning and rebuild service to members here.

    My service includes careful inspection, ultrasonic cleaning of jets, replacement of any parts found unservicable, blow-out with high pressure filtered air, setting float levels, remove mixture screw seals, precision assembly, bench tests to verify operation, and visual synchronization. Jet kits can be installed also.

    Much INexperienced carb cleaning needs to be done again....and again because it takes lots of experience to do the job right the first time, every time.

    I aim for about 2 week turnaround time

    My plan is to have a fully cleaned and ROAD-TESTED set of '94-'97 carbs available on an exchange basis for immediate shipment. Also '86/'87 700/750

    Put them in a box and ship. ( I'm willing to help you over the phone to remove and replace.)

    If interested, PM me on this site or@ squirrelmanxxjerry@yahoo.com
