Carb's and Choke

Well I finally got round to working on the bike and pulling the carbs off, that was after I gave Alex a hand with his bike and looked at this clutch. He has a Aprilia Caponard, which has a hydrolic clutch and judging by the colour of the fluid we took out it hadn't been serviced in rather a while. So just run some more fluid through the system until it ran clean and made sure that we got the expected resistance from the leaver. We did the rear brake as well as the front looked and felt just fine.

Then on to the carbs on the SV650, why I am I sorting them? Simple, bike it running so, rough almost like its being starved of fuel on the rear. Which when we last looked at it with the top off it look like it did as the rear jet seemed to be blowing out almost no fuel compared to the front. After taking them off my other SV in the back garden we found out the reason. Removing the carbs and then the carb choke cables showed the choke to the rear had rusted and snapped. Which rather explains the problem, choke did nothing and probably didn't help the rest off the running, including the noticed increase fuel cost.
No of this was a real problem compared to the weather, which was the most changeable I've ever seen... Kind of went like this. Work on bike, rain, go indoors. Work on bike, hail, go indoors. Work on bike, snow, go indoors. Work on bike freezing rain and wind, give up and go indoors. I never got the carbs back on due to the weather, so this will get done Monday.
