No, Not the film about a Jamacian bobsleigh team,

The CB650 has been running great while the weather has been nice, tried to go to work the morning (-1 'king cold) everything was fine until I hit traffic and had to slow down, very ropy running wouldn't idle, It was doing this earlier in the year but only on REALLY cold days - plugs really foul up as if choke is open

JonnyB:
Any Idea what this hole is for??????

matthewmosse:
I think that it might be a blanked off hole that on the other side of the carb would have a pipe linking the carbs to allow fuel to flow fron one to the other, just based on apparent similarities with the cb500 carbs in bits that litter my workshop...... ???

JonnyB:
I don't remeber ever seeing it before, so I assume it must have had a blank or somthing over it, could this be causing my running rich problems?

JonnyB:
Took the carbs off and cleaned the Choke mechanism, chargedf the battery and went for a spin yesterday, drives like a dream, but still worried about the poor running on a cold day, any one had similar experences?
