Update: Took the bike for a good 15 min ride today after syncing the carbs with my own DIY tool, and it rides great! Really pushed it to high RPM & high speeds, performed just as it should. I want to list some quick tips I forgot to mention in this thread when I was diagnosing my main issue...

Yes the rack is stock. I've probably only seen one video on youtube with someone who has the same rack. I actually took it back off, not sure if I like the look or not.

Thanks for the info. It turned out that my killswitch was broken so I wasn't getting any spark (my reason for posting this question)

Going to send an update in here incase this information is useful for anyone experiencing the same issue I have. So great news, no more surging idle, bike starts up wonderfully. I was having an issue with it dying when given throttle, so I stripped the carbs down once again, cleaned every hole...

Soldered the killswitch wires together to bypass kill switch. Putting together tmrw to see if everything is dialed in.

Inspect it, maybe it's missing a bolt or bent

I know I'm the only one really on this thread but I've been doing lots of testing with a Circuit light & multimeter and I've realized that the killswitch was broken! I opened it up and peices fell out like the bottom of a chips bago_O The things you find am I right... Multimeter had no change...

I know this might be a silly question but I'm currently having issues with spark, I've been reading on because adjusting the TCI or whatever on the left side of the engine. But if I'm kickstarting, isn't the TCI only engaged for electric start? Trying to rule out my problems here for no...

I have come back with new information:) So I set my floats to 23mm, threw them back on the carb & let gas fill up the bowl, and no more leaking! But now I am still facing the spark issue. I realized I get spark the first time I kickstart and then there's no more spark after that. Idk if this...

Forgot to add, is there anyway dirty contact points in the coils could cause some issues? Mine seem to be a bit greasy or something.

Thanks for your help, to be honest I don't own a multimeter WHICH I SHOULD but I will get to the voltage testing across the whole coil system. Battery is new also not sure if I threw that in there, but upon typing this I forgot that I was supposed to check all the wiring & connectors incase of...

Recently decided to put the rack back on, for some reason it gives the bike its own distinct look. Incase anyone is wondering too I shaved down the OEM seat that why it's not as bulky as they regularly look, used a cake cutter knife to do it, fairly easy tbh.

Morning everybody, I made some progress! Regarding the coil issue, I found that when it's switched to ON from the OFF in the right pointing position it didn't give me any spark... But when I had it in OFF on the left pointing position then turned it to ON... THERES SPARK! Super weird I have...

I Haven't checked with a multi-meter yet but I will do that tomorrow. Where exactly are the points I should be checking? Clearly inside the coil pack where it makes contact with the spark plug, but where else? As for the float height, I will indeed try 20mm! I've done multiple tests on the...

My heads been spinning lately & I need some help figuring out my problem here... I've been having an issue with the carbs overflowing, not right when I turn the fuel on, but after about an hour or so it's start pouring out of both sides... I've changed the float height to 26mm, tested the...

Regarding the high idle, still has the same issue... I've attached the carb back onto the bike and it seems I'm having a slight gas leak still, coming from the back side... no clue tbh. I set floats perfectly (26mm), I think it might be bad gaskets ill have to inspect again. Got the bike to run...

I finally got it out today!! I used 10k Gold tester acid to melt it down a bit, both from the top and inside. Used vice grips with sewing needle pinched on the end and lined it up, then tapped with a hammer from the inside. So simple when you take your time and get the right tools Lol! If...

Note that I've also bench synced it the closest I could & also change Carb boots. Symptoms remain the same from when I originally got the bike.

Ive been having an issue with a high idle, I recently cleaned the carbs multiple times and also rebuilt them. I set float height to 26mm, since I realized they were around 22mm. Removed the pilot screws and didn't even realize the tips were broken. I've went thru many forums on this site, tried...
