Hopefully one of our native coloradans will step forward to help out!

Otherwise. u/Harisluv makes an excellent business of cb carb restorations.

Im using Mike Nixon at the Motorcycle Project to do mine for my race bike. I had done them a long time ago with aftermarket brass seals and he is going to set all that right and get them in fighting shape for me.

I just noticed the site it down, but hopefully all is well. Either way, he has my carbs so hopefully I can report back soon.
All you gotta do is do what you gotta do.

Mike Nixon is excellent. Also busy at times. Make sure you don't mistake Rick at OLDSKOOLCARBS  8) with OLDSCHOOLCARBS of Jack Wagner  :o in California. The latter has been a tad controversial, to put it mildly.

 Rick West at Oldskool, with a K, does great work.
 Jack sorta ripped off Rick, in a way, but we won't go there.
