After about a month and a half of putting the bike back together, now keep in mind that I really did not clean anything, only put it together, IT STARTS AND RUNS. Now to begin fixing all of the problems. It idles at about 4200rpm and backfires apon shutdown. I need to fix that first, get it running right. I am guessing that a really good carb clean is required. Can this be done and set up properly without any special tools? I did already clean the tank and replace the fuel lines. I am assuming that since it starts and runs that the petcocks are alright. Any other ideas? It started right away using the starter, restarted right away using the starter. haven't tried kicking it yet. But talk about a good Sunday, from boxes to running in a month and a half. It's time for a beer.
