Hi,
Well the bike is back in one piece and running. The bike runs really well below 4,700 rpm but once you get above 4,700 rpm the engine runs rough and the engine loses power. However once you get about 5,800 the engine picks up again. I should also mention that it takes a while for the bike to start but it does eventually and it does not idle very evenly.
I sent the carbs away to be cleaned, new manifold rubbers, and the petcock is new and the line to the manifold looks like a tight seal. I am running stock air filters and 2-1 exhaust system. Points cleaned and static timing done.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated,
Mark.
