WEll my almost year long battle with tuning my carbs has come to a CONCLUSION!!! I gave up... and sent my carbs to Sean to get another opinion( a professional one) on my carbs. Basically.... the PO had done a rebuild on the carbs at one point and used a klien rebuild kit... or something like...

Nope the airbox is in tip top shape, Y is still on. No leaks either(i check with starting fluid) and its always sealed tight. Yeah i was wondering if the air correctors were the reason Seans carbs ran better on my bike... but i feel like putting them in to make it run better might just be...

Vents are clear, and so are slide covers, ill have to try swapping slides and see if that makes a difference. Jason
