Well odds are last year in trying to get the bike running we screwed with the mixture screws so i'll turn them all the way in then back them out 2.25 back out and see if that doesn't net me some reasonable MPG.

 

 

I'll be all over that like a fat kid on a cupcake after work tomorrow.

Ok so synced the carbs again adjusting the pull cable so as not to hold the throttle open. adjusted idle speed acordingly took it for a spin. shut it down started it up took a ride. got home parked it ran inside to change for work. went back out bike had COOLED by now jumped on... wont start cranks over but no combustion. what should i be looking at? It runs when the bike is hot but if its cold I cant get her going again when the carbs are synced...

 

 

if i turn all the screws CC then it will fire up but then are out of sync from the #2 carb.

The idle mixture screws are fuel feed so counter-clockwide makes a richer idle setting.
