Tom,lots of questions and some answers.
1. Find another dealer (he should have given you the solution)
2. How many miles on the bike ?
3. What exhaust are you using ?
4. Stock jetting ?
5. Which cylinder ?
5. Carb synch is strictley a function of vacuum (using standard gauges).What
kind of compression reading are you getting on the offending cylinder?
Answer all of this before you take the carbs apart and you will have a good
start on the solution to your problem. Bob H.
