Carb tuning.

Post by Beardo »

Can anyone recommend a good carb place to get my twins balanced and tuned. Preferably south of the river around cockburn or freo

Cheers

Got onto a mechanic in jandakot who was excellent. We put in variable jets and he gave it a once over and it goes fantastic now. If you are down that way the shop is vehicle fleet services. Give them a call on 08 9414 9885
