Black smoke and hanging idle after a full rebuild
deltarider:
All K3s are prone to a hanging idle. The black smoke is intriguing however. Often it is a reduced air intake.
Bryanj:
If its a Dyna ignition the US board reports a lot of faiures

I stopped reading at Pods K&N. They have got to go on a K3 the carbs don't like them at all. Search the internet for a correct airbox.

Ah yes missed that sorry. So he's running F carbs on a K bike? They work better with pods but that said the internet is full of people trying to get a stable setup with pods fitted. I would still get rid of them and remove a known complication.
