I'm going to take my carbs off so I can do my valve clearances. Whats the best way to store them? It will be for a couple of weeks. Clingfilm, plastic bag, inside or outside(in unheated garage)?

Never had a problem with mine sitting on the bench in the garage for months, just cover and stuff rags in the stacks.

Cool, just wanted to make sure. Thanks

Give em a good squirt with WD40 or something if theyre in a cold garage,cant hurt.Make sure they are empty as well.

If your carb inlet rubbers are old having them off the bike for a while can sometimes spell death for them.

You can sit them in a warm spot which helps, I also sometimes sit them in a jar of petrol for a day or two before refitting to make sure they're pliable. Or you could buy new ones...

I think I'll stick them in petrol this time. Thanks, I was slightly worried about the inlet rubbers as I've never had the carbs off for more than 24 hours before.
