the carbs are next. i went to the tuning section and realized that booster hose was gone and that all the hoses off the carb were blocked off. remedied that and now it starts with ease, unlike before. but i still have the sense the jetting or adjustment is off as the rear cylinder is blowing very hot and the front is just warm. at idle i am used to warm air coming out and the hot exaust and 1100 rpm makes me nervous. Since i bought the bike last month i havent had a real chance to ride it. THe pgm was missing the cover and suffered from water failure the second ride! since then it has sat while i went through it going WTF is this and why is this like that.

Here in the philippines it is hard to get quality items and exactly what you are looking for. i spent 3 days looking for fork oil, and i am still looking for stainless bolts since mine are all rusted. every part purchase is an up hill battle, why i dont know!

By the way i am running open carbs do to the fact the K&N it came with were rotted out and rusted. no luck as of yet finding a a replacement or foam filters. I have a tig welder so i might end up making a housing for a filter i can get.
