Try contacting Ultrawave for details of their range.

Use the ultrasonic as the last phase in the cleaning process.
You need to fully strip and degrease the carbs as normal prior to using the ultrasonic.
After much experimentation I found plain hot water works best with maybe a small amount of detergent (fairy liquid).
Blow them through with the airline as the final step.

I've had some good results with this stuff;

But as Rob says, you'll get better results if the carbs are thoroughly degreased first.

Here's some from TLC's Z1000J that I did a couple of years back.
