Took the fairings and gas tank off, but couldn’t find a walkthrough online. Somebody make some money and come take them apart and clean them for me? :tspry:

I’ll see if I can get them off, I suck at life.  
If I can, $50 is fine… going to go try now.

If you can wrench at all it isn’t had. Pull off the carb and pull off the bowl. I remove the float, needle, jets etc and clean with carb cleaner/brake cleaner. Make sure all the little passages are clean and clear then reassemble. I just cleaned my Mikuni carb on my Super Sherpa. Good luck!

Thanks, but I’d really prefer if it ran when I was finished. I’m not trusting myself to wrench on it, if I want it to work again. lol

^^^ Probably looking to save a little money while giving someone on here an opportunity to earn some extra cash.
