Hey Timothy! I hope you're not tired of hearing from me yet. :oops:
It's not uncommon to have differing vacuum levels at different throttle positions. I think that's why the manual gives you a certain RPM value to do the synchronization at. You just kinda gotta pick a "happy medium".
If the carbs are TOO "out of whack" it's probably not a good thing, but I don't know how you would determine that for sure.
As for the "timing belt", there's only the one timing chain for both camshafts and all 4 valves. If the chain hap skipped a tooth, surely you'd see weirdnesses in both cylinders...?
===============
I forget - did you check the float height on both carburetors after getting them back on the bike? Using the U-tube method (http://www.bbburma.net/FloatHeight.htm) (as Srinath calls it)? If the left-side float is too high, that might explain the overabundance of fuel.

Yes, the manual says to have it at 1750 rpm.
As for the floats. I did test them a while ago. But I wasn't looking to see if they were too high. I was looking to see if they were too low. Guess that's going to be the next thing I do.
And you've been the most helpful person on this server. I look forward to getting replies from you.
Thanks Kerry

yeah kerry is the man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, seriously if your cam chain, had jumped, it would run a lot weirder than it is now, on your carbs, try doing a static balance, i.e. take off the air filter, and open the throttle all the way, and see if both of the butterflies are in the same position, and go from there. good luck :thumb:
