[QUOTE="dan filipi, post: 74519, member: 54"] I ask first what problems are you having and what is the history of the bike? The reason this is important is I think that many guys go into the carbs when opening them up may not be necessary. Often times running issues are ignition related or only a problem in one carb. Carb work is not complex, though some make it out to be. Patience and keeping everything organized is most important. Going into carbs may seem scary never having worked on them but it's just a bunch of parts. I can't speak for Randakks video but I do hear its worth the cost but again, it's just a bunch of parts and a few passages that need to be cleaned well. Granted there a few guys you can send them to and have it done if you want to invest the cash, and in some cases that may be the best option but the overall condition of the rack would decide that.
