Yeah, theyre the stock carbs. I took them partially apart yesterday and wasn't to surprised to find some sediment in the bowl. The jets didn't look to clean either so I soaked them down pretty good. I found out I'm running 130 mains and they dont exactly look drilled like tools said they could be. I haven't got to crank it up yet because I got done with it pretty late. Before I cleaned the carbs I had the pilot screw set at 1 full turn and it seemed a little better (still black smoke and when I got on it changing gears it bogged down initially) I'm thinking that the float setting is too high and letting too much gas in. It looks like it would be running more lean than rich with the setup I have?
