Cold #1 cylinder
I hope I've found my problem. #1 was not heating up at idle. It would heat up with a little throttle. Broke the carbs down (again), and found the passage in the bowl is clogged. Dipping that again now. Already dipped the body again before looking at the bowl. I guess newbies need to learn the hard way.https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9zH8w8Civs8ejBJWjdvYi1LNTg&resourcekey=0-hlJp0Yc4K_VN9g7Jyy4KQg&authuser=fussbucket_1%40msn.com&usp=drive_fs

my cold carb #1 was a plugged pilot jet. interestingly it was plugged with something clear as I could see through it. Only when I tried to blow through it did I discover it was blocked. compressed air got the offender out.
FYI - Mine got hot on choke and cold at all RPMs with the choke off.1981 GS750L - Owned since 1990 when graduated high school and since have been discovering all the things not disclosed by seller.
1983 GS750E - bought in 2016 as a rough runner to use while rebuilding 81L and then to combine with ES to make one good one
1983 GS750ES - bought in Toronto in 2015 on a lark as a non-runner, missing front cowling and exhaust - If you have a 1983 750ES front cowling let me know! Blue would be nice
