Re: 1979 KZ1300 Ugly yes I think! Old yes I bought it.

Thanks rich that is kind of what i was thinking.What would you use to clean the carbs?Regular carb cleaner?Also I am a auto tech and havent messed around with bikes very much.I can rebuild a motor on a vehicle and do everything else to work at a gm dealership but never got into fixing and tuning bikes they always ran when i got them.except for a few mini bikes in the old days.Should i remove the whole carb system on this thing and pull the bowls off and clean them out this way or what?Give me a clue if you can.I just looked at them tonight(20 degees out and 30 mph winds)so i really at this point dont know what it takes to pull these out.I dont want to mess with any factory settings tearing apart the carbs.I can rebuild a holley but i dont want to start tearing apart something i cant put back together like this.Just wanted something i could tinker on and hopefully fix up and ride up and down the Iowa blackops this summer.Thanks for your help!Born
