I took the carbs off this week end to go over it once again. Checked all the passages I’m aware of and rechecked the floats height. The mixture air screws were set to 2 turns out as the plugs were sooty and the manual calls for 2 turns as a base setting for the 400F. I then did a bench sync, this time making sure I followed bryanj’s instructions to the letter.

With the carbs back on I made a sudo air filter cover and spring (too impatient to wait for Alan’s care package to arrive hehe). With a BTR wrench I managed to push the air box boots properly onto the carbs.
As a result the bike fired up nicely!. Haven’t done the diagnosis and touch ups while running, just wanted to hear it run. Will investigate more this week end.

Cheers

Sounds promising,  well done. 👍

Hopefully you've a decent platform to get the finer parts where you want them now.

That's a very neat routine that Bryan put up there as it covers all the elements to reassemble and provide accurate setup in one go.

Once done, they stay remarkably close during use and don't usually need constant retuning as many internet views seem to suggest.
