MOTM - Nov '18, Mar '17
Ghostt's 30's, under wet testing revealed high fuel levels, LH carb +5mm
RH carb ran away.
The viton face of the RH float valve was visually distorted.
The pilot orings were disintegrated.
However, all circuits, jets were clear

In other words...they did require service attention even though the bike was running ok. I think his slightly less than optimum mileage was the indicator.

Split, sodablasted, heated ultrasonic treated, all consumables replaced.
All circuits confirmed clear, working fuel levels recalibrated, throttle plates synched, slide action tested and wet tested.

These carbs should regain their excellent fuel consumption...I'm very interested in fuelly reports after a tank or 2 and Ghostt's (reverse) performance comparison to the 32's in the near future.

Note before swap 30's...49MPG
After swap 32's returned 58 and 55 MPG on 2 tanks....a respectable increase.
