Carb Cleaning

Hello there, long time no post! Just a quick one!

I've just taken the carbs off my bike to clean after having running problems, and basically its been standing since xmas.

Any recommendations on where to get a good seal/service kit for the carbs?

Cant seem to see any on ebay, though I have on a few sites, thought best to ask those in the know!

Cheers

Re: Carb Cleaning

I took my time taking them (carbs) apart, seals didn't look too bad, so re-used them after cleaning - there was some jelly/gunk clogging around the base of the main jet.

I also took the fuel tank and pump off for a clean to be sure - and later put an inline filter between the two.

Bike's fine now - though it could do with a slight carb sync I think!
