Hi,
My 1991 ST1100, with 55K miles, has been trouble-free the past 4 years, but I got the bike out today and ran it for a while, and noticed gasoline dripping under engine. I pulled the seat and covers off, and noticed dripping just below the air chamber/duct assembly towards the front of the bike. I have never removed the carbs. Do they come out as an assembly, or do I disassemble the air chamber/duct assembly and deal with each carb individually?
From the dripping and the smoke coming from the right side exhaust, I am guessing the #2 Carb has a stuck needle and seat, and is flooding. Usually, I will run the bike for 15 minutes each month, but I was not able to do so this year, and now I am paying for it.
Any suggestions/help would be appreciated.
