One thing I wish every carb bike owner knew…
Parking the bike up for winter with fuel still in the bowls is the quickest way to ruin a good set of carbs. Modern pump fuel is full of ethanol, and when it sits, it attracts moisture, leaves a sticky residue and turns to varnish. That’s what clogs pilots, seizes mixture screws and gums up floats solid.

Be honest, do you actually drain them properly, or just wheel it into the shed and hope for the best? 😅

If you’re tucking the bike away soon, we offer a Winter Storage Package that prevents all that: fuel drained correctly, bowls treated, components protected and nothing left to corrode or stick while it’s off the road. No blocked jets in spring. No seized threads. No surprises.

Hi there, I’m looking at sending my carbs from my 1984 Kawasaki GT550 Z G2. When the have been cleaned and rebuilt do you set them up so I can put them straight back on the bike, and roughly what your time around time please.
Many thanks, Tom.
