Bike should idle no diferent with filters on or off.


This is correct.... There is something wrong in the carbs. You need to pull them and go thru everything, make sure chokes are clean and all passages in the bodies are clear.

I dont know if i posted all the pics of tearing down and reassembly of the carbs, but they are in pretty bad shape. i have seen another rack on flebay for pretty cheap, they may need rebuilt but it would seem as if it would be a better base then what i have now. i also got a line on a solid tank with cap for cheap. so ill proly be replacing the tank first, which it needs bad.

Randy has brand new complete sets of carbs ready to go.... think about it ..if someone is selling a set of carbs for cheap on ebay they you are just buying someone else's problems.....   every single piece brand new for not much money considering how much all the individual wear items cost to replace... you would have almost the cost of the carbs just in buying 4 slide diaphrams!
