Thats the problem!

not necessarily he has VM carbs and they are more forgiving to no airbox
i at least hope that he is using pods
he will have to rejet for sure with no airbox but it's not that big of a deal
it will take some time to get it dialed in but they always do
he should be ok with the stock pilot jets but will most likely have to raise the needles and perhaps go one bigger on the mains
plug chops will tell him what he needs to do

to get it to idle properly he will need to tweak the pilot fuel and the pilot air screws to richen it up for the lack of an airbox and read the plugs
you all know how this goes
1 make a change ride it read the plugs
2 make a change ride it read the plugs
repeat this process until you get it right
remember to only make one change at a time otherwise you don't know where your going wrong or right

I think that I have found my problem.... My intake valves are too tight when I twist the throttle fuel mist comes out of the carbs which indicates that the intakes valves aren't closing all the way so I need to adjust them accordingly. Thanks for all the help everyone this is a great forum.
