what did you change ? when carbs are dry it can take alot of cranking to fill them again. good time to bypass the pump relay for fast filling.
if any adjustment is required ( tolerance is + or - .001 ") plan to spend another 2-3 hours doing it and checking your work. an accurate torque...

not really, but u can test the circuit at the plug without any disassembly.

look him up in the members list and pm (conversate) him. WELCOME to the forum. :Yo:
our VF expert, captain 80's, knows for sure.
you didn't mention balancing the rear wheel ? o_O a really bad chain can do weird things at speed, so check that. :Yo: how many miles or kms...
