    Need a little carb help from my friends!! That's what the beatles meant!

    Allright everyone, I'm getting really p.o'd. I have cleaned the carbs twice. I have bench synched them. The bike idles great at stand still. However, when I am riding and come up to a stop light and pull in the clutch I have to give it gas otherwise it will stall. Actually for the first 2 miles it won't stall. It seems to do it only when it warms up. However, when I finally come to a stand still it idles fine. What seems to be the problem. My bike is idling at 1200. Doesn't vary, runs strong, lots of power. Never wants to die at any other time. Does it sound like I just need to take the bike in and have the carbs synched.

                May sound stupid, but did you adjust the main idle screw? Its the one right in the middle that has a ridged knob, cant miss it. It may be a little low.:?

                If it is that, I hate it when it is such a simple solution to a troubling problem!:-|

                  Yeah, I tried adjusting that also. It didn't do any good.
