Why not do it yourself?

Er thanks for that never crossed my mind :| .... If I had a sonic cleaner, and the confidence to not wreck em I would but I don't so I'd rather pay someone to do the job for me....Hence the reason for asking the question in the first place.

Alright chill out boy! It's not difficult, why not give it a go? If you have a Haynes manual you can't go wrong.

If you have say 2 hours spare, have a little patience I would recommend doing it yourself. As Wozza said, get yourself a Haynes manual and get cracking! Its not to hard, just a bit fidly.. Make sure you use good quality screw drivers. The jets are easily damaged being a soft metal..

Good luck!

I've got the haynes manual, I've got the time, and I've got the patience, and the tools, but I haven't got the confidence to strip them without damaging them....oh and I am chilled ;) wasn't trying to be funny I was just pointing out the facts ...I don't mind trying to sort most things with my bikes using an haynes manual, but when I come to something I'm not fully confident in doing I would rather leave it to a pro rather than F**k it up myself, and it end up costing me twice as much!...Trust me this is the voice of experience speaking. It's great being able to do things yourself, but know your limitations it saves you time and money in the long run...Anyway that said is there anyone out there that can answer my original question?

We can strip / clean your Tri Arm carbs in our tanks and reassemble all correctly £40

Any parts required will be extra but that i.e. set of new jets for example is £20.

And dont worry we know how to seal the float bowls without buying the rather expensive carb O ring kit from Honda.

Feel free to call for address details etc.

Cheers

If this is not gasket sealant, I suspect it is one of your many secrets? ;)
