Well, i finally have the bike running, and i tried to sync the carbs. I couldn't find a definative way to do it on the VM's so im trying my best. Right now on the carb tune its showing all the bars level at 18, yet, when i rev the bike it pauses, then takes off. To me this sounds like a lean problem but havn't been able to read the new plugs. Any ideas?

synching carbs will not tell you if the bike is running lean or not, it is a mechanical adjustment to ensure all the slides are at the same height as each other. this gives smooth tickover and nothing else.1978 GS1085.

im aware of that, but why would, when they look to be synced, does it just take off like that? Lean right?Comment

I would rather sit on a pumpkin and have it all to myself than be crowded on a velvet cushion. H.D.T.Comment

Pods and headers. pulled the plugs and they're going black. It ran somewhat before winter, can't quite figure this out. Mixture screws screwed in one turn from flush. Idle maxed out. Stock pilot, but its still running rich. Ive replaced the o-rings too.Comment

There's a 110 in there now. But I'll just go put the mufflers back on. Before winter it would pull smooth throughout the rpm range, with the crappy pods. (i bought the cheap ones because i just wanted to get it running)Comment
