Run your bike with the gas off until the engine dies. Start by removing the screws arrowed, this will remove the Carb Box cover to reveal the meaty, juicy insides. When you re-tighten these screws, do it evenly to avoid warping. When you remove the cover, be gentle, there is a rubber seal under the lid. Inspect the seal for cracks; if it is missing or cracked buy a new one.

Unscrew the two arrowed screws and pull off the Air Filter. This will allow you to get at the carburettor body. The Air filter should not be dirty. It's important to clean the air filter every time you even look at the carb.

In this step, you will prepare to remove the Carburettor body. To do this, you should remove the choke cable (pull the plunger out and unhook the cable). Remove the nut that holds the gas line to the carb body (MAKE SURE YOU EMPTY THE LINE OF GAS). Undo the 2 11mm Sleeve nuts to loosen the carb from the carb box.

Once you loosen the nuts, Pull the Carb body STRAIGHT UP and out of the box. You will now be looking at your CRANKSHAFT! Put a little lint free shop towel over the intake port opening (towel omitted for clarity) dropping screws down into the crankshaft would be BAD! The gasket over the opening is the carb to base gasket.

Cleaning the air filter is a pretty simple task. Since Carb cleaner has toluene in it, you should probably wear some dish gloves while spraying it. Spray the inside of the air filter until the carb cleaner liquid runs clear. Depending on how dirty the air filter is, this may take a while. When it's clean towel it off. If there are any holes in the gauze replace the filter.

Now whip out the Carb body and take off the fuel filter cover. Inspect the fuel filter by popping it out with a screwdriver. Replace the gaskets when you reassemble the carb - don't do it now, you may knick them with tools. Take note of where everything goes.

This is why you replace a fuel filter (shudder). If there is crud built up under the fuel filter, clean it with carb cleaner and cotton swabs. Remove the screws that hold the float cover together (arrowed above) and pull out the float assembly - get a towel ready to soak up some gas.

Once you get the float out of the carb body, you will have to push out the pivot pin to get out the float needle. Displace the pin with a bent paperclip and all the stuff will pop into your hand. Clean the float bowl with carb cleaner and look for cracks in the wall. If there are cracks, you can use anerobic liquid gasket to temporarily fix the crack.

Inspect the Float for cracks. If there is ANY gas inside the float, replace it. The float should have squared edges, if there is damage to the needle seat or float, replace the float. The needle should come to a narrow peak, if there is any crud on the top, replace the needle.

This is the slow running jet, check it for grime, use carb cleaner and compressed air to clean it out. DO NOT PUT METAL OBJECTS IN THE JET TO CLEAN IT! Refit the jet and tighten until SNUG, no tighter.

This is the main jet. This jet is three separate pieces; only take it apart if you can't get it clean. check it for grime, use carb cleaner and compressed air to clean it out. DO NOT PUT METAL OBJECTS IN THE JET TO CLEAN IT! Refit the jet and tighten until SNUG, no tighter.

This is the starter jet. Check it for grime, use carb cleaner and compressed air to clean it out. DO NOT PUT METAL OBJECTS IN THE JET TO CLEAN IT! Refit the jet and tighten until SNUG, no tighter.

Take out the two arrowed screws to reveal the slide. It's spring loaded, so hold it down as you unscrew the cover. Pull out the slide and have a look, it should be dark grey with little to no scuffing. If the slide is really scuffed, replace it. The slide should slide from edge to edge in the neck of the carb. Spray some WD-40 along the slide rails.

To get at the throttle rod seal, pull the throttle rod through the hole in the slide cover. a little black vinyl seal/spacer will fall out. if it is misshapen, replace it.

There's only one screw holding the choke plunger in the assembly. Remove the screw and pull out the choke. if there is anything built up on the black seal at the tip of the plunger, clean it off thoroughly. Use lots of WD-40 in the plunger chamber for a smooth action.

We're finished the carb rebuild. You can continue to this step if your engine has seized from lack of oil, if your Oil Device is working, DON'T MESS WITH IT and put everything back together. First, remove and plug your oil line with a bolt. To remove the Oil Pump body, undo the three screws and loosen the plumbing.

If you have had a soft seize on an injected bike, you should probably remove the carb box completely and inspect the oil path under the box. the box is removed by a small flat head screw under the carb to base gasket. DO NOT DROP THIS SCREW INTO YOUR CRANKSHAFT!

The cables and hoses may make it difficult to disconnect the carb box. You should be able to flip it over while you're at the engine - this picture is for clarity sake. Make sure nothing is protruding into the oil path. if there is grime, scrape it off carefully and use as much carb cleaner as you like. If the gasket is bad (see through or ripped), replace it.
