Hey Folks,

I have a 1980 R100 that someone else rebuilt/restored. It looks great and has mostly new parts, but It ran awful when I got it. I have fiddled with the carbs to get it to run ok, but there is still a lot of room for improvement. Does anyone know of a mechanic that can re-jet and synch these carbs to the proper tune?

Thanks,

Tom

Tom, do you know Steve Lissner? He might be able to help you.

Hi Doug. I'm new to the club so I don't really know anyone yet.
