    Well, I think Tom's Cycle in Indiana charges $50/hr for labor... thats where i always went for everything as a kid. I'm pretty sure Bob Tracey's cycle charges $75 or 80... Dunno what West Hills Honda charges... I do work on my bikes myself, but those are the prices i've seen sitting up on the wall when i've been having tires changed, etc.

    03 raptor 660. PM me a price to redo the entire carb and or/ just go over it. Quad actually runs pretty good but it tends to backfire slightly when letting off the fuel, running too rich maybe? It has a pipe, filter, and snorkle tube thing is off. It's also been jetted. I know something is wrong w/ the flots. When quad is off and sitting for a few hours, it drips fuel @ a steady pace from the nipples under the carb. But quad sat for 8 months in my shed during those hard winter months. I threw a new battery in her, and literally soon as I touched the started button, she fired right up instantly and idled perfect, didn't even need the choke.

    Also my rear breaks go straight to the floor, no pedal @ all. As your beginning to tell, I don't work on quads, I ride them lol. PM me a general idea on the carb. I also understand the rear breaks will need to be looked at, i don't expect a price qoute on that until you see it.
