Finally got my bike to the shop

[Martin]

My skin is now immune to carb/brake cleaner, brake fluid, gas, etc... even any of that shit on an open wound (i.e. busted knuckle) doesnt even bother me anymore

lovely you gotta use gloves man

You can save some bucks by removing the carbs yourself. Its expensive to have them do the time consuming act of removing all the tank/fairings etc to get to the carbs. While your in there you can throw a set of plugs in the bike.. fouled plugs and dirty carbs..thats pretty much the only reasons that bikes dont run.
my ninja 250 was having some flat spots at 6k-8k and I paid 105 to have the carbs cleaned and re-jetted cuz I brought them in-hand to the dealer.
