Unfortunately with winter coming up, I'm going to have to start putting the bike away soon.
So I am going to start prepping for my winter project - deep cleaning and frame painting. Now, cleaning the frame, the rust, and repainting, doesn't worry me. Its when I get to the engine that I get nervous.
Carb cleaning - never done it and I'm not a mechanic (at heart I am a master). Will it be difficult with instructions, or should I find one of my buddies to come help me out.
The Engine - What is best to clean it? Would I even clean it, or grind and buff it with a sander a little. I'm not really sure what I'm doing when it comes to that and I don't want to mess it up.
