Carb quick fix?

Hey is there any type of additive that will clean out the carbs? my bike is running a little choppy and i need to save up for a couple weeks to afford bringing in to a shop. i was wondering if a can of something would help until then...

+1 for Seafoam

I don't know what autoparts store you have in your area, but I buy Seafoam at AutoZone.
In using it in my truck I disconnected the vacuum line from the brake booster at the firewall and sprayed the Seafoam through the line until the truck would just about die, stop spraying, let the truck throttle up, then spray again. I then shut it off and let it soak in a bit.
On the SH I would spray it in the "velocity stacks" and let it soak a bit.
I use the Deep Creep.


I've also run the treatment through a tank of gas.
