    Iv got a 1986 700cc. I soaked the carbs for cleaning and realized afterwords the adjustment screws were all screwed in all of the way. I assume trying to make up for the carbs being so gunky.

    How do I go about getting the carbs synced and correctly adjusted once I get them back on the bike. Assuming the bike will run again in the first place.

    Your help is appreciated.

    synch the carbs visually before reinstalling by lining up each throttle plate with the small holes in the carb throat...... or use a single sheet of paper as a feeler gauge to get the same clearance on all butterflys.

    start by setting the left front carb to minimum opening using the idle speed adjusting screw, and then match the others to that
