Carb refurb

#1 PostAuthor: Adrian90s » Sat Jun 27, 2020 12:39 pm

hi guys,
Does anyone know a good carburettor refurbished?
I have original Z1 (1973) cards and they are very gummed up.
Ideally close to me, Wakefield/Leeds area.
I'm getting close to having a running bike and it's quite exciting!

That’s Exactly what I did. It kept me out of mischief for a few evenings as well.
