Carbs and petcock just needs complete restoration. You will NOT find any shop that can do this kind of work. Carbs are extremely specialised field mastered by very few elf-like creatures from black forests. Search for "clean carbs ducatiman" to find threads with how-tos and photos. Your best bet is to send to https://customcarbservices.com for restoration work. Carbs will come back brand-new and bike will run like it just came off showroom floor.

I've sent carbs in several times for refurb when I rebuild race-bike over winter. Since I run in stock-class, factory-fresh clean carbs is one of few "upgrades" that'll give me an edge over competition.
Yeah I’ve read about ducatiman being, well the man, when it comes to rebuilding carbs.

So squirt it through the box the same way the air would flow or open the box up and squirt it onto the filter that way? I just got a new K&N filter so don’t wanna ruin it haha!
