All:
I have to remove and replace the left head on my 1993 ST1100. Is it possible to remove the head without completely removing the carb? On my GL1200 the head can be removed while leaving the carb on the engine.
I'm an experienced mechanic but haven't worked on the ST1100 until now. I know with most engines there are "tricks" that can be used that don't follow the maintenance manual. (which I have) If the carb has to be removed then of course I'll take it off.
Thanks in advance for any advice you might have, this is a great forum.
best,
DC
