It would appear that my machine has recently been affected by witchcraft. All has been relatively hunky dory (in Airhead terms) and I have never had anything other than the normal issues, but now!!!!!!! So,I noted that the bike had recently started popping on the over-run. Normally it would be a silencer air leak but checked everything and found nowt. Then I noticed that one header is blue the other the normal straw colour. Both carbs set the same and balanced. Plug colour leaner on the blue (er) side. Cleaned and stripped the carbs and found the fuel level drastically (10mm) different in the float bowls but the float levels are the same when checked, both paralel when the fuel flow stops. The lower fuel float bowl level corresponds with the seemingly hotter side. For now I have adjusted the floats to compensate but still a bit of popping and still blue but much less. I've ordered new float valves to see if it makes a difference. Any ideas?
