    It could be a vacuum leak somewhere in your intake system. To troubleshoot it, run your engine until it warms up and the revs increase.Next, get a can of WD-40 and spray around all of the intake components with your engine running. If your idle slows down, and smoothes out, you've found where to begin looking! Check for loose or missing screws, nuts, bolts, and cracked or missing gaskets and hoses. This is a trick I learned while repairing aircraft years ago that has never gotten out of date!

    That motorbike employs a carby layout general as consistent speed or CV for short. there's a rubber diaphragm on the actual of each carb which could become worse over the years and require alternative. Tuning of those carbs could desire to be carried out with the engine at comprehensive working temperature. Failure to accomplish that can consequence in the indicators you describe. the specific variety on your motorbike (you have 4 of 'em) is "32mm Keihin CV". Plug that right into a seek engine and you will locate diagrams and tuning information. A 4 carb setup may be complicated to nail in case you at the instant are not geared up / experienced at it. i'm not accustomed to that motorcycles ignition yet while it does use a mechanical strengthen mechanism for the spark it must be sticking in the completely stepped forward place. this will additionally produce your worry. chuffed analyzing on your wet day.

    Try synchronizing the carbs then setting the idle.

  • find the idle adjuster screw on the carbs (a small thumb screw) and adjust it to 1000 -1200 rpm when hot - this can be don while it is idling
