    I just wanted to provide to all about my experience with Jim French. It was outstanding (5-stars). First I made contact with and then OI sent him the carb from my XJ700. As soon as he received it he called to confrim and fixed it that day and shipped it that day. He has you left him know when you receive the carb or job back and then you pay him on PayPal. My coast was $35 plus shipping. The work is excellent and I can tell he took the time and utilized his experience in aligning the post so it does not bind. I have a permanent fix.

    That’s beautiful. Love seeing something saved that would usually get tossed.
