Screamin_Banshee Posted April 23, 2011 Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 Stock carbs? Choke tube in place? Slide's in correctly? Cable adjusted properly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Screamin_Banshee Posted April 24, 2011 Report Share Posted April 24, 2011 Hmm. you shouldnt have changed the airflow of the motor with just a cable. Is it lifting the slides all the way? Needles sitting all the way down in the slides? If it was me, I'd pop the carbs off and give a good cleaning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
