    Why do you think the diaphrams are sticky? They don't require lube at all, nor do the slides.

    Please describe the problem you are having so we can help.

    You might have a partially blocked air passage or air jet, or the slides might need to be removed and the slide bores polished.
    Have the carbs been cleaned or rebuilt since you've had the bike?
