Thats funny. I just got that, took me a minute. Good one Mike.


Not sure of your skill level but it is understandable to not want to try and rebuild the carbs on this bike if you have little to no experience with them.

By the looks of the parts fiche, it could appear quite daunting I'm sure. See below;

But if you've been riding it it must be better, and shows that the internals must be good, so you can rule out valves (although it probably needs a valve job). Plus it sounded like it has some snort in the video, which leads me to believe that the internals are good, and that you should clean the carb and air filter.

What else is there unless your exhaust is plugged?
