    My 86 gs 550 makes that sound out the exhaust,she sound like she's trying to start maybe a timing issue or fuel starvation ? i took the carbs of and soaked and rebuilt them new orings all the way around she will start with starter fluid for a few seconds she has 4 into one exhaust one NOTE the pilot jets i took out were not stock they had no holes the ones i ordered have holes( i destroyed one taking it out thats why i ordered new ones) do think i should order the ones with no holes THANKS

    Your carbs are still clogged

    Your pilot jets should have holes

    Did you clean them per the carb tutorial?
