I had the carbs synced professionally last week. I still had a hanging idle but I resolved that by cleaning the advanced mechanism and using some thinner grease.
I took the bike for its first lengthy ride on the weekend between the surrey cafes. Overall it rode pretty good, apart from a slight stumble off idle when under load it pulled well through the revs.
I will be spending a lot more time on the carbs, but as I've said previously, I will probably try and work through that on my own rather than ask on here.
One issue that has come to light, is the rear brake plate eating into the hub causing. There were quite a lot of aluminium shavings which I found sat in the recess of the rims. The plate already had a bit missing which I knew about when I put it on, but I didn't think it would be a problem.

I've ordered another hub from Fleabay so hopefully that will be ok.
There are also a couple of oil leaks, there is a small amount of oil on the fin above the base gasket on the left side. Not sure where the source is yet.
Here's a video of it running, it's before I sorted the idle hang or had the carbs professionally synced, so you can hear the revs stay up after I blip the throttle.
