ASMR for PETROLHEADS, BIKERS, MECHANICS - NO talking - FULL carburetor rebuild - NO music

These carburetors come from a Kawasaki GPZ 900R (the first Ninja) and today they're getting a thorough rebuild and restoration.

If you're interested in some carburetor educational and instructional content I have plenty of that too:

The goal of this video is to be an ASMR-ish relaxing video. I don't really do ASMR videos so I don't have the microphones and other gear for it to be a true full-fledged ASMR video (also I'm not a cute girl willing to flaunt her cleavage which seems to be an ASMR requirement too). But I think it will definitely be relaxing for someone who's into mechanical things, rebuilding them and the like. I mean I did this and I found it relaxing to watch the video afterwards. There's no talking. There's no music. Just a guy rebuilding carburetors.

A few important notes to consider. This video does not show the full process of what I did. I didn't show the removal of the jet needle collars and I didn't show me soda blasting the carburetors. To remove some of the stubborn dirt and grime that was stuck in hard to reach places I had to soda blast them. Unfortunately I couldn't show that process as it happens in a box and it's impossible to film it. All you see are clouds of soda smoke. I didn't show a bunch of other small boring sequences.

These are Keihin CVK 34 mm carburetors. These are simple and well made very reliable carburetors. You can find them on several dozen different bikes including the Kawasaki KLE250, KLX, KLR, GPZ 500, BJ250, even on some Arctic Cat snowmobiles, and hundreds of other motorcycles and ATVs.

The process in the video involves disassembling and inspecting the carburetors and throttle plates. If everything checks out. All the jets are removed and cleaned with carburetor cleaner and compressed air. Every possible hole and orifice of the carburetors is also cleaned with carburetor cleaner and compressed air. If you want, at this point you can paint the carburetors and any brackets. After this gaskets are replaced and sprayed with silicone spray and jets, float valves, float bowls and top covers are installed. Don't forget get to check the float height. I also went a step further and decided to replace all the Philips head screws with allen bolts. I highly recommend this as Philips head bolts are always found on carburetors from the factory, but they get stripped really easily and honestly don't belong on anything other than cheap alarm clocks.
