Ok, to add to my original post, I tried running on the other settings on the petcock and it was the same.

I checked the plugs and the plug on the petcock side (left side if sitting on bike)was covered in gas or oil the right side plug was dry.

I also noticed on the wet plug side that the exhaust was leaking some gas/oil at the joint. When I ran the bike, both exhausts seem to be working however the wet plug side stayed cold, while the right side got warm.

All that to say that it looks like one side is working well while the other not so well... is it possible that it´s being flooded?

Planning an oil change over the weekend, and thinking of cleaning out the carbs. Any ideas/directions would be great!
