Im looking to have some carb work done on my 89 ninja 600. I had to do some surgery on it this winter once I got it back from the previous owner (friend) and its been sitting for nearly two years without the proper storage treatment. I changed out the gas over the winter when I got it back since it was extremely old, however I believe the damage in the carbs was already done. Therefor, I am looking for a person or preferably a shop to give the carbs a good cleaning. I rode it earlier today, and low to mid range the bike is very lumpy and hesitant at times. I’ve never needed a bike mechanic before now, so I’m not sure at where to look. Please don’t list off dealerships, I’d rather avoid them. Thanks ---

Sounds good man. I sent you my phone number so feel free to call me and lmk what you can do. Like I said it runs, I actually drove it up and down the street, but its extremely lumpy and rough. I just replaced the cam chain tensioner in it and the exhaust gaskets, but the previous owner let it sit for over a year so I think the carbs might need a tune or rebuild. I just dont want to do anything to it at the moment. LMK if you can take the job on, I’d rather give you the work but like I said im in sort of a crunch time wise… Give me a call and we chat… Thanks! ---

I am jammed right now, it would be a week before I could get to anything. I can get you carb rebuild kits for $18 ea. I think that bike has Kehin CV’s on it might be able to get away with a good cleaning but I would recommend needle valve assemblies. My wonderful verzion phone took a crap again so I no longer have a phone for a few days I’ll PM you my work number if you need anything.
