Title: my new frankenstein!!!!
Post by: lazarus on February 04, 2010, 12:07:36 AM
hi everyone.
i've been checking out this site for a while now.finally registered as i've begun to sink my teeth in to resurrecting my 94 steamer that i got for an incredible $1400.Didn't come without it's issues though.
I have to rebuild the carbs,rebuild the front fairing bracket,rebuild the rear shock,along with a few other things.
anyways,i'm in to the carbs first.can anyone recommend a good complete rebuild kit,or is what comes from triumph the way to go?
i'm also a little baffled over how to remove the plastic piston guide from the carb.i don't want to damage it s i'm not sure if they come with the rebuild kit.i figure there must be some kind of trick..any ideas?
also,when i dissassembled the right carb,there was no needle jet in it.can anyone tell me why this would be?
thanks for helping me stumble along. :?

whoever worked on it was obviously a hack ..........
somebody screwed up ......there should have been a needle jet

bike bandit will have what you need to repair the bike but it is retail pricing just like at the dealer/stealer .
but they also have all the parts diagrams online which is a big plus for doing things to see how stuff goes back together .
