Hello everyone! Been lurking for a few weeks as I bought my first bike a short while ago, a 1990 GSX600F. Which I guess is referred to as a pre-kat around here. I was introduced to the forum by another member on a local bike forum(ocmoto.com) and this place is a treasure trove of knowledge!
The bike has 48k miles(that's right, not 4,800, but 48,000!) but motor still pulls strong, but the body's beat up and generally looks run down. No matter, as long as the heart's running well.
I do have one question, which is where I can buy a carb rebuild kit that will include everything I need to completely rebuild my carbs? The idle has been a bit off and sometimes will sound like its dying and I figure a complete carb rebuild wouldn't hurt. It looks like it hasn't been touch in awhile. Also where can I get those emulsion tubes? My tank seems to be emptying out quite quickly and the bike leaves a trail of rich gasoline smell wherever it goes lol
Excited to be part of the kat group and looking forward to get my kat in top shape with your help!

Wildbill, thanks for the info on carb parts. Will be looking into it and hopefully get all the parts in a couple weeks.
