Thanks David,

The overflow hose are attached and in good condition.  When I cleaned the carbs, I used one of the manuals of the files section as a guide and did clean this orfice on each carb. I both soaked the bowls and  carbs and shot them with carb cleaner till everyting was flowing through all the ports.  Hopefully this gets me running easier. 

I haven't looked into the UNI's, what is the benefit to them vs the K&N's?  Will I need to adjust my jets? I already have a jet kit that was installed by the original owner...

The UNIs are foam filter media.  Much better filter than the single sheet of oiled cotton used by K&N.

They also stay installed better. 2 dual pods vs. 4 individual.  You shouldn't have to change any jetting or needle positions.

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely, in an attractive & well preserved body...but rather to slide in sideways, body completely worn out and and with your last dying breath screaming, "HOOOYA LIFE, lets try that again"!!!
