Sure sounds rich. Time to pull the carbs and document what was done to it and bring it back to something reasonable. A K&N and a slip-on...
Also, to get the carbs properly cleaned and fuel tube o-rings replaced, the actual butterfly linkage does not need to come apart. Just the outer...
Something is not right.
Take an old cable, any old cable. Cut one end off and pull out the twisted cable from the sheath. Now cut about 12 inches off. Remove one...
It's absolutely crazy not to replace the fuel tube orings at this juncture. I guarantee you will have to do it at some point, probably very soon...

Do yourself a favor right now and order the next size up pilot jets too.
Seriously? You come this far and you think it's wise to just leave them in place so you can't shoot carb clean and compressed air thru that...
Do not remove plenum. Do remove choke cable. Loosen all clamps. Heat boots with heat gun on low. (Important!) Skillfully lever the carbs out of...
Well too late for this... You always pull the carbs as a unit with the plenum. Unless you want to break fuel tubes. Then you flip them over to...
Great!
OK... another change. Bought another shitty muffler for the flange and fabbed up one more slip-on for a fairly crappy Two Brothers Oval CF...
Yeah, if it wants to move pretty freely, you could prob get away with no "damage". You might be able to get away with something non-metallic too....
Also.... any members live close enough?
If you back the pinch bolt off a bunch and carefully wedge the swingarm split open, you may be able to get movement with something other than a...
Very cool. Glad it arrived safe. Enjoy your Summer!
We swapped a couple bikes bodywork on the floor at the dealership for customers. Maybe it was something like that. Then later on in it's life it...
