    Ok, I've developed a liquid that works amazingly well in my Ultra Sonic carb cleaner & am now offering my services to my fellow members of the GSR. It's a blend of several chemicals, all bio-degradable & environmentally safe.

    My Ultra Sonic cleans in three ways.
    1. The special solution dissolves greases & dirt.
    2. The built in heater helps to clean stubborn deposits
    3. The Ultra Sonic principle itself that is explained further in this link.

    Carb Cleaning service now available - The GSResources Forums
    http://www.thegsresources.com/_forum/showthread.php?t=186915
    If you sell parts or provide services for GS series motorcycles, place a description of it in this forum.


    Cheers, Paul Jones (nastyjones)

      Maybe you should add a disclaimer that even though they are spending 350.00 for what a 19.00 can of berrymans will do, that they will still have to be sure the valves are within specs, they will still have to vacuum sync the crabs and do all final adjustments. For that price, the unknowing newbie will probably expect that your gonna throw them back pefectly set up carbs.

        He never said they would be perfectly set up. A vacuum synch has nothing to do with a cleaning so why would anyone think that? You cannot even synch the carbs correctly beyond a bench synch without them being on the bike in the first place

          Sorry i misread the numbers quoted...so your charging 130.00 and that is JUST FOR THE CARB BODIES??? And the statement about them being cleaner than any other method on the market? Good try.

            I realise he never said they would be perfectly set up..but a total new guy without the first clue may read that assumption into it..thats all i am saying.

              Why are you starting this up again? We all know what your opinion is. It seems like you're deliberately trying to sabotage my idea. I'm not going to be drawn into a disagreement with you over whether a can of carb dip can equal Ultra Sonics.

              The results speak for themselves.

                That is a true statement for both sides of the arguement...Im not trying to sabotage crap for you. Just such a shame that the unsuspecting fall for all this ultra sonic high tech bullchit..its like listening to a tv preacher thats really all about getting you to send you that monthly check..whooo to the gullable.

                    Chuck, you REALLY need to get past the 19th century!!! Ultrasonic cleaners WORK, work WELL, use biodegradable solutions instead of chemicals, & are HERE TO STAY!!! Since I bought mine do you know how many times I've used my Berrymans? ZERO! Gee, want to guess why?!!! Because the ultrasonic works BETTER! PERIOD!!! And I have been doing carbs for over 30 years!

                            Chuck, are you trying to work your way into "pessimism's" territory on here?
                            You are sounding JUST LIKE HIM.
                            "That won't work, this can't work, only stock works, follow the factory manual only (except to adjust the valves correctly or tightening bolts), etc."

                            ULTRASONIC IS THE ONLY WAY TO GO... PERIOD!

                            If you have any doubts, TRY IT!!!

                                Daniel...whos pessimism?? and no I never said that ultrasonic cant, wont, doesnt work..just that its none the better than barrymans in the long run. If someone wants to be lulled into that mindset just because they need to keep up a fasade with the Jones then cherrio to them. The only advantage is they get the job done faster than the wait period required to soak them in the dip..your gonna replace the orings anyways, so they dont "save the orings" or any other great whiz bang advantage..sorry if you guys dont like someone thats not gonna goose step into the "Hey I gotta have this or that gadget ..look how tech cool I am" fantasy land.
