Carb Woes

My bike ran pretty much like a top coming back from Santa Rosa last weekend. When I first got back into town I did notice it seemed to be hesitating under heavy throttle, I initially wondered if it might be bad gas or something.



Over the next few days the problem continued. I checked wiring, changed plugs, check battery voltage, check spark, etc. Check fuel flow, float bowel filters, etc. The more I thought about it the more it seemed like incorrect Main Jet symptoms. It sorta defied logic but last night I decided F-it, I'd try stepping up the main jets one size. When I pulled the float bowel I discovered one of the main jet seats had unthreaded about 3/8". The shit that can rattle off an old bike never ceases to amaze me...
