Did you strip both carbs?

If so, did you get the float bowls back the right way round?

[liffy16]

yes the bowls are correct l/hand carb for choke righthand carb blanked off,took carbs off
again to double check

[rdstars]

Also it is possible to get the throttle slides the wrong way. Mine did start with them wrong ( just ) but did not run very well.

[liffy16]

checked slides when putting in and then check again when there fitted by taking
out tickover screw you can see bottom of slide

The cutaway for the idle screw will always be on the outside even if the slides are in the wrong carbs.

Hi I Suggest you prime the engine with oil before you ride it all that fuel will have washed the
bearings and the bores of oil also check your carbs arent still flooding cheers Dave
