FYI When I choke it, It bogs. Other than that it runs fine. Is that a clue to anything?

After the bike sets overnight,do you have to use the choke to start it?After the bike has ran or been rode,then no choke should be needed, unless the bike has sat for a few hours and cooled off completely.After my first start,I never need the choke again for the day.

I don't need choke to start it up when its cold

I just tried to carb sync it, its not working, one side sucks up all the fluid, I have backed out the screw, and then put it all the way in, right side still keeps sucking it all up.

Edit: I got it to run, its balances on choke but not with out

It sounds like a valve out of adjustment and one side isn't getting enough vacuum.

I got it adjusted finally, carb balanced, and the idle screw set. Sounds alot better, going to take it for a ride see how it feels. The choke still works sporadically. Will report back in a few.

OK so it sounds good now, provides more power down low and has more growl. I balanced the carbs when it was warm and now it see like its running alot better. I am about to pull out the plugs and see how they look.

Only issue it has right now is that, when I put the choke down, it doesn't really do anything other than bog a bit untill I give it throttle and hold it for a bit. Then it will hold the high revs. What does this sound like?

You have'nt checked the valve clearence yet, have you?

I don't have the correct tools to do that yet

You will know more after the valve clearance check and adjustment.After you do this,you will need to re sync the carbs.Every time the carbs are worked on or the valves are adjusted,it alters the vacuum signal enough to throw the carb balance back off.
