Hello I've been slowly working on this bike for the past year. The issue I'm having is the carbs are leaking fuel through the intake and nothing will make them stop. Right now the float height is set at 19mm I've done a valve adjustment the petcock is working fine I dropped from 135 mains to 130 to see if that would help I have 2 washers in place for each needle jet I cut 1 ring off of each diaphram spring I've got the idle jets set at 1.5 turns and the carbs been fully cleaned and new float bowl gaskets installed. All of this has been done with the pod filters removed when I got the bike this wasn't happening.

The only things I have yet to do are resync the carbs and replace the float valves which appear to be fine

I replaced the float valves it seems like they may have helped now my issue has changed from pouring gas out the intake to not revving past around 1700 rpms. So I'll have to get that figured out now instead.

Sounds like one or both of the needles are not lifting.....If you lift the slide with your finger you should hear vacuum & it should snap back down. |

That's what I was thinking. My plan was to try and cut off another coil and see what happens cause I took the springs out and that got it to rev up.
