CleanSierra Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 Shimming valves is easy as SHIT on that bike. A shop didn't need to do it for you. They will sell you shims or trade you your existing shims usually.Actually turned out to be a problem with the carb. I took the whole damn thing apart and cleaned it. Turns out it needed to be rebuilt. New jet, float needle, and a few other things.Yup, good call having the shop do it then so it's RIGHT. What did they charge you or quote you, do you know? Local shop here quoted me $280 got total rebuild and install, plus tank cleansing as well. Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.

They did the following. -New battery + install -Rebuilt carb -oil and fluid change + filter -Tune up -New plug -Brake adjust -Parking brake adjust -Align front tires Not terrible.

CleanSierra Posted July 31, 2013 Report Share Posted July 31, 2013 Very good deal for all that work Chris, well done. The battery is around 50ish alone I believe. I buy mine from the local Batteries plus and that's about what I pay. Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
