08 May 2009 06:38

These carbs were rebuilt 2 time this week with a new accelerator pump. 1981 kz650. Accelerator pump is new, every gasket and oring has been replaced.Bike will run with the choke on or off. The bike will die if you give it throttle too fast. Slow jets are 17.5 main jets are 112.5.
exhaust are about three feet long straight pipes with pod filters.
Thanks for the help.

are you sure this is a carb problem? Are you getting good spark on all plugs? Is your timing on? Are your coils good?

Good point.... check your carb holders to make sure they are not leaking air.
