    Blipped quickly, bike hesitates at idle

    Hey guys, bike is sig. My valves are within .04-.08. My floats are 22.4. My mixture screws are 3.5 turns out. She idles fine if I take it down to 1100 or 900. She bogs when throttling just a tiny bit letting out in first, then a second or two later she's fine with no problems. It seems like if I let out in first and give it about 1/2 or more throttle, she bogs but lightly throttle is fine. Going through each gear there is no hesitation to 10000 and decal in any gear there are no pops at all. If my idle is at 1100 and I blip very quickly to about 1/4 and let go, she will go to 8 or 900 and stay there for about 15 seconds or more almost stalling and then go back to idle. I am going to carb synch, but I just got her running and wanted to see what I could do before I go and synch her. Thanks in advance,
    John.

    Synch her - probably most of your problem. After that play with the mixture screws, sounds like you are a little rich to me. I had similar symptoms on my 1000G with exact same mods you have.

      times two, need a little jetting work.
      the #1 most frustrating hard to get right thing with bikes is jetting for mods.

        I'll second that motion!
        Also makes the single biggest difference when you get it right.
