Where did you set your floats?

[zombie850]

I left the floats where they were stock, I didn't know there was a float adjustment. I thought the carbs must be out of sync
. Any help would be appreciated.

Any time you mess with the float needles and seats you need to check the float adjustment. Measure from the gasket surface to the point of the float where it steps down from the hinge. I don't know your specs but my cv carbs for a GS1100 are 21.4mm to 23.4mm. If you have the gasket on minus 1mm from that.

You still have problems with the carbs OR it could be the air filter

Are you sure it runs on all four?
