Start of restoration Carb Help

(1/3) > >>

RGP750:
I bought this 750 back in September ,A one owner from new even got original purchase receipt £890-00 and new 4 pipes (he didn't want to chance them going rusty so fitted motad, my Brucy bonus)
Thought i might keep it as original but after a few rides front break needs an overhaul  Carbs keep blocking
so seeing as it was such a lovely day today decided to start.
Started to dismantle carbs but i'm stuck . Is the top shaft is it secured with captive pins?
see the photo (hope they up load )
Cheers Richard

hairygit:
Yes they are, and it's not a good idea to try and dismantle them, the pins were never available as a spare part. Unless the action is stiff, leave well alone! Lubricate by all means, but they are a right pain to re assemble, and finding a way of securing them, and if you hit them too much the alloy can break >:(

RGP750:
Hi thanks for that I thought they were, hence why i stopped.
The bike has done 25000, while they are taken down i was going to sonic clean them.
What is best for external finish,should i do a complete rebuild? if so can anyone recommend rebuild kit,
they range so much in price from £28 full kit of 4 to DS £80 ?????

I have just found this out on my 500/4, I wondered why the shaft was hard to remove! Now I have to fabricate something to replace the pin that locates in a groove on the shaft to stop lateral movement.

RGP750:
Hi have you drilled yours out?
I'll have a closer look at mine tomorrow,while i hear  what hairy git says i think there is
more than enough material to tap3mm for a grub screw.
and be able to dismantle fully to renovate.
