As many of these bikes are ageing...more extensive service procedures are required...automatic replacement of consumables, confirmation of adjustments, micro cleaning and clearing every (full) circuit.....and much more
And a WARNING on the video...at 2:21 through 2:29.... NEVER EVER spray carb cleaner with slides/diaphragms installed. Would you risk spraying? Did anyone tell him the slides are PLASTIC, the diaphragms RUBBER? Permanent (expensive $$$) damage can occur, quite an ill advised method right there, unprofessional at best.

A note to readers I do not endorse and not did I post the carb cleaning video.
