Hi Guys,
I actually got some time today to play with my Atlas in the garage. My throttle is really sticky so the next job on my list was to lube the cables and clean the Monobloc carbs really well. Well as it turns out the slides are worn and warped and the bodies are a bit warped too. I am thinking about getting new slides and repairing the bodies. That shouldn't be too difficult, but I was wondering if there is a good alternative that I could get. On my Commando I have the Mikuni. It works fine rides great but is a pain to start when cold. It floods rather easily. Is there an aftermarket option that anyone recommends for Atlases? What about the new Amal Premiers?
Thanks!
