Question

Answer 1

are you saying that the bike starts and runs fine down the street.......but when you stop it dies.........that does not sound like carbs to me.....if it was carbs it would not get ya going down the street in the first place.......but if it has multi-carbs....that is a fair price including parts.....all new parts and syncronizing the carbs.....then tuning them on the motorcycle to the motorcycle...........

Answer 2

Get a shop manual and try it if you're a halfway decent mechanic. I've never tackled a carb myself.

Answer 3

yes thats a rip off i just did mine for right at 100.
