    Carb rebuilding

    FYI...Anyone in need of top notch carb rebuilding check out wgcarbs.com He did my VM 26s for my 77 gs750. total cost was $338.00 US funds. Email him for turn around times as he does them in the order he recieves them..Does a great job.

    I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.

    Nice to know, but you could have done the same job yourself for about $300 less.

      probably so ifi was a carb savy type.. besides he runs them in an engine and tunes them before he sends them back..all that and no aggrivation from my end was worth it to me.. was jsut throwing it out there. Always nice to have resources and options. Just trying to be of some use in this world LOL. I was just creating an album.. Posted about 15 pics of this restoration project if your interested go to my profile and oopen the album..

        This has been covered many times. He CANNOT tune your carbs on another engine. It may be close but you need to Synchronize the carbs to YOUR engine.
        All engines have different vacuum pull on different cylinders.
        I'm sure he did great work I just thought you should know this.

            This was intended as a resource for those not as ADVANCED in such areas as obviously you are.. And yes i did know that each bike has to be synced as it is unique. I was simply putting it out there for anyone wishing to have it done professionally like i did. Now that being said, to find the parts, clean the carb bodies inside and out, reset to factory settings, run them on an actual engine instead of "GUESSING" as to where to start from and at least get them really close so all you need to do is fine tune it a bit isnt such a bad deal.

Wish had taken some before pics so you could see just how awefull it really was when i got it..hope it gives others some joy too.. As i said i am a newbie to bike projects. This is my first one ever..

                        Welcome to the forum, Chuck.

                        I'd have done your carbs for HALF that price.
