I do handle some of my own carb work. I just finished rebuilding my DR650 carb and I just got lazy I guess. Not only that when I brought the bike into the shop it had a host of other problems... allow me to list.
Random leaks in several places on the engine = Complete Gasket Kit $68
Worn sprocket shaft seal = $11
Rear brake rebuild was needed = $50
Fork tubes were bent = Used fork tubes $149
Rear tire rotted out from age = $135
Ignition coils were corroded = New Hi Perf Coil set $68
Exhaust was leaking = New Exhaust from Delkevic $335
Rust in the gas tank = Tank expoxied and new petcock = $375
I just didn't have the time to do all that, fortunately I had the funds lol. Now the last thing that's giving me trouble are these carbs. Hopefully the boots I bought will work out and I can put this to bed.
