Getting tired of stepping over body work in the basement. Mights as well mount a couple of pieces to get them out of the way.

Think I've found the naughty cylinder.

Its actually running a bit better today.
Instead of sounding like its idling on 2 it sounds like it's idling on 3.

It would normally do this every season. It would take about 2 tanks of fresh fuel + techron before it cleared its throat.

From cold start and "oh yeah, maybe I should turn the petcock to on"

Testing throttle response as it warms up. Response is a bit on the lazy side.

Yeah the response isn't great... but is that normal for those carbs?

Not on the 11 I've ridden. Sounds rough at Idle. Like my CBR did when it was running on 3. (Minus the hissing from the burned valve of course )
