    1986 gs550l bobber

    Hello everybody.
    I'm new here, and I try to search for a forum that talk about my problem with no luck.
    Like the title says, I have a 1986 gs550l with the damn 2 dual carb setup. Can't find any info about this carbs.
    I've been working on this bike for 3 years with no luck, it has no air box or muffler( straight pipe ), the first set of carbs wouldn't keep the bike running without choke fully engaged and wasn't able to give gas without dying on me, i just finished cleaning the second set and install them yesterday, it did start and I was able to rev it nicely, but when I felt the heaters cylinder number 1 and 2 are not firing, pull wires and I have spark but i can't smell any gas on the spark plug, carb bowl has gas in it. What I'm trying to do now is jus to get al 4 cylinders to fire, any idea why one of the dual carb is not injecting fuel?

    Notice that this forum loves bobbers! Did you buy it like this, or are you just ambitious ? Check 1 and 2 fuel bowl for fuel first, but understand that this style carb won't be happy much above idle without airbox or jetting changes. Three years is too long- consider finding a stock airbox setup, getting it running right and then get creative.

      damn 2 dual carb setup? What an absurd and hurtful thing to say.

      Check out the basscliff website for the manual and do some reading.
