Title: '00 M750 Mikuni rebuild Post by: bdfinally on March 13, 2013, 05:08:00 PM It's springish here and I've decided it's time to think about a carb rebuild. 34,000 miles and they haven't been apart since a Stage II kit went in with about 3,500 on the clock. What's the easiest way to go about this, just buy another Stage II kit, plus jet o-rings and bowl gaskets? As always thanks in advance

You can go for the main jet o-rings, carb bowl 'gasket', jet body gasket, mixture screw o-rings, float valve o-rings, from Ducati. Don't leave the diaphragms out of the carbs for very long, they can shrink and are then a beyotch to fit back. If you're feeling ambitious, you can split the rack and clean the 'anti-backfire' diaphragms and pistons. Fair warning, it's a hassle to get the balance spring back in. If you're going to split it, get a pair of o-rings for the vent tee and seal rings for the fuel inlet tee. Don't lose the little filter on the fuel inlet. You could get a new one of those for fun.

They wear fast (even if you can't really see any visible wear) and it affects mileage and drivability at low speeds.
