I said the base carb is adjusted by the idle screw. Set the "idle" so you have a nice drag on the paper. Then adjust the remaining to match that...
Where are you located in case any forum members need a parts bike with a potentially good motor.
Shit, you can get a nice RUNNING 500 for 1500 - 2500. No fucking way. And that is a potentially a mix of bikes. That is 86 bodywork. If I...
Wow. Those look great!
Lack of information. Pictures. Price. Fuel tanks can be saved. The bike will need to be gone thru THOROUGHLY ($$$$$$$$). If this is a...
I don't think I would be burning many slab miles with that bike. That's a boulevard cruiser and a country road bike to me. In any case, it's...
That bike is not completely obsolete today. It's fucking rad. I'd LOVE to have that, it's still a weapon.

Fuckin' TASTY!!!
Sorry... my mind read Uni. Emgo makes good OEM replacements. No oil of course. Uni (foam) and K&N style (gauze) require oil.
Interesting, I'm gonna have to take a look. I've got 2 86 engines (one 700, one 750) that will be getting clearance checks soon. But I think all...
The carbs are synched in a certain order. I can't tell you cyl numbers off the top of my head at work, but it's based on the linkage arrangement...
