 :hi: Hi hi five, my '92 is alive :yahoo:

My brother Peter came over after work. We pulled the carbs, stripped them down, cleaned and rebuilt the set with brand new complete carb kits from Sirius Sonic from Cambridge...check them out at www.siriusconinc.com & www.siriusmotorsportsinc.com

Carbs where then reinstalled, complete with new gas lines, a new in line filter and the Uni-pods from my '85. Fired her up, dialed her in, geared up and away we went for a wee shake down ride :good2:

I am pleased to report that 'Blue' is fully awoken from her five years of sporadic slumbers and she is now ready for the season ahead :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely, in an attractive & well preserved body...but rather to slide in sideways, body completely worn out and and with your last dying breath screaming, "HOOOYA LIFE, lets try that again"!!!

The Keyster carb kits are great....I have used them on my '85 and several Yamaha Vision's with no problems X-Ray.

The four kits, #KY-0561, including taxes (13%!!!), came to $173.00. No local shipping charge, free shipping over $80.00 and a flat shipping rate in Ontario of $10.00 (I think) :scratch_one-s_head: I picked up :good:

This is what you get, as listed on the box:

Gasket, chamber x 1
Needle, valve x 1
Jet, needle x 1
'E' clip x 1
Screw, air x 1
Spring, air x 1
Jet main #110 x 1
Jet, main #155 x 1
Jet, pilot #42.5 x 1
'O' rings x 4
Washer x 2
Screw, throttle x 1
Needle, jet x 1

This is per kit :good2:
