Thanks Shyster!
I'll pull them off in the next few days and have a look. As I thought, the membership took a day to go through, but now that I can see the service manual I'll go and see what's what.
Also, I've ordered a topend rebuild kit (OEM Honda parts) and a set of carb rebuild kits.. I don't think I'll swap the pistons out just yet, but feel like a carb rebuild is in order.
When I removed the tank I saw the servo motor sitting out located pretty much right below the filler cap of the tank. I noticed the pointer had an alignment mark and it looked to be almost spot-on... Maybe a couple mm off center. Do you think a tiny little mis-adjustment like that could cause it?
I really feel like the issue is fuel related.. I'll have to do a plug chop...
Any more insight is greatly appreciated!
Cheers Aydin
