400/4 struggles to pick up when warm
Nurse Julie:
I use D7EA as mine is running spot on, not too lean and not too rich, just perfect.

Ok. So found the problem was down to the needle position in the carbs. I had fitted new cruizin image needle and jet kits during the rebuild. Despite fitting them on the given slot they were too high. Dropped them down a notch and it has improved no end. Just wont idle but guess that'll improve if i balance the carbs. If not I'll try dropping the another notch.

A thing to be careful off is if your bike is not idling when warm recheck your valve clearances if they are too tight the valves wont close properly when heated up and will burn the seats, a good indicator of this problem is the bike will idle when warming up but will not idle at full temperature.

Thanks Ogri. Will recheck these today
