The mechanic told me that the carbs have to be resyncronized once they have been off the bike and adjusted.If you have a friend with the proper equipment ask him to syncronize the carbs and check your air and fuel mixtures.Some times you have to seek profession help when you have done all you can.The air is very hard to get adjusted right once they have been tampled with.Good luck,and let me know.
