I finally started my CB650! I cleaned the carbs a month ago and the bike had not been started since last October. It started right up but it remained at around 3-4k rpm's. Something crazy is going on. It won't idle. I messed around with the idle screw but that didn't do anything. The throttle is kind of sticky too. I don't think I put the throttle cable back on incorrectly but that's a possibility. I finally bought the Clymer's manual. It's helpful but I'm not a huge fan yet. The pictures could be better I think. It's also leaking oil out of the thingamajig above the oil cap. Anybody know how to put the air box back on the carbs? That thing is frustrating. I certainly have a lot of reading and work to do. Carb sync, pilot screw adjustment....
