Fager Powersports
Common carburetor tuning problems I fix:
- Dirt bike won't start after sitting for 6+ months
- Won't idle/stay running
- Only runs on choke
- Hanging/inconsistent idle (slow to settle or erratic)
- Revs really high on first startup
- Fuel leaking out overflow
- Backfiring/popping on deceleration
- Bogging/sputtering when accelerating

Current Pricing (2025):
- 4-Stroke (Liquid-cooled): $250
- 4-Stroke (Air-cooled): $200
- 2-Stroke: $200
I help people identify problems, troubleshoot, and tune their dirt bikes to start, idle, and run better than new through YouTube videos, online courses, and "done-with-you" private coaching, and now I'm offering it as a local service (we're located in Oak Grove, MN - 30 miles north of Minneapolis)
You can drop your bike off, and then pick it up when done. Lead time is based on parts availability (if applicable) plus 3-5 business days (Mon-Fri).
Convenient "Pick-Up" Also Available
I also offer a no-hassle personalized "pick-up" and "drop-off" service if you don't want to deal with loading and transporting your bike.
Pick-up: $50 for the first 20 miles. After that, it's an additional $3 per mile.
Drop-off: $50 for the first 20 miles. After that, it's an additional $3 per mile.

Or If You Just Need Your Carburetor Cleaned & Rebuilt:
- Small engine/single carbs (dirt bike/motorcycle/chainsaw/lawnmower/leaf blower/etc)
- Ultrasonic cleaned
- Safe on gaskets/o-rings (I've cleaned countless carbs over the years with this cleaning solution) - "Carb cleaner" products typically do more harm than good and don't do a "deep cleaning" job that's needed for carbs that have been sitting for months or years.
- You would remove the carb from your bike and ship it or drop it off (Oak Grove, MN). Turnaround time is typically 24-48 hours during weekdays (Mon-Fri).
- Carb will be disassembled and all passages cleaned
- There's a 50% chance that the o-rings will leak when reassembled (this is due to the rubber hardening/cracking from age or harsh chemicals/fuel sitting in the carb).
- You have three options: 1 - Buy a carb gasket/rebuild kit yourself. 2 - Have me order the parts and I will charge you the cost. 3 - Reuse the current gaskets, knowing they may or may not leak.
- Current price - $100 per carburetor (plus parts if necessary)
- Please use the "Carb Tuning Services" form above and note whether you're shipping your carburetor or want to drop it off, and I will get back to you via email 🙂

Your Satisfaction Guarantee
If you aren't satisfied, then I'm not satisfied. I have a high level of standards because I HATE a poorly running bike. But if you're still not happy with the results, I will continue working on it until you are happy.

You may have seen me (Kelley Fager) on the Motocross Hideout YouTube channel. I help beginners and casual trail riders stay safe and have fun by choosing the right bike, learning efficient trail riding techniques, and properly tuning & maintaining their dirt bikes.

My parents lovingly bought me a 2001 Honda XR50 in November of 2000 and I've been addicted ever since - my dad was instrumental in helping me learn the proper mechanics of motorcycles and I have been fixing and maintaining my own bikes (of all kinds and brands) for over 20 years now.
I offer free as well as paid content through MXHideout to help people just like you save time and money by using efficient "tricks of the trade" that I've learned through my experience.
Now I'm offering local services (near Oak Grove, MN) to those who want their bike running better than new!
