Ha... time is like storage space - you never seem to have enough wink

Well, I got a hundred or so miles on the bike since putting her back together, and she is running great. Only issue I am now having is I can't get the idle down under around 1500 rpm no mater how much I turn the adjuster. Turning it for slower idle does absolutely nothing now, and the rpms just stay right around 1500. I'm guessing that it's a result of (1) having removed the idle mixture screws when cleaning the carbs, and/or (2) needing to re-sync the carbs since I split them apart to replace the fuel rail o-rings.

Not sure about the sync though, since I never did disconnect the linkage between the two carbs and it's still at it's factory default setting - but I'm sure it wouldn't hurt either. I don't have the equipment to do it, so I would wind up having to purchase something.

Thoughts? I've never sync'd carbs, but it looks dirt simple. Just not sure I need to and don't really want to spend more money than I have to. Never adjusted the idle mix screws on this bike either, so that is rather intimidating (at least to me!!).

Cheers,
Brad
