    Ok pulled the carbs.. Easy task except for getting that last throttle cable off. Opened them up.   They defiantly need some cleaning. I may be sending them out.   I called a bike repair shop up the highway from me and asked what he would charge he told me anywhere from $150-$200. I actually think that's a great price. 1 carb I have done before but 4 I think that's out of my league. What do you guys think?

  Also when I squeeze Front break or clutch they both go right down. Maybe split line? or maybe they just need to be bleed? again she was sitting for 8 years.

Ok I'm switching over to the spin on oil filter as I type this. The previous owner had mobile 1 in her. What would you guys recommend me to switch too? I know 15/40 but should I stay synthetic or should I not?

Oh and how many quarts?
