I'd like to thank folk on here helping me diagnose problems starting the bike again.
The main issue I have now is it's idling low to the point where it sounds like it's about to stall, and then a few seconds later it'll return back to something more modest like 1,500, it is say erratic the needle isn't smooth and I assume the carbs would probably need balancing now I've tinkered and cleaned them. All 4 cylinders are firing, I know because I now have burnt numb finger tips from touching the downpipes.
It's probable something trivial that I might get a garage to look at since it'll need an mot anyway, although the engine oil is old too and will be getting the whole change over on Saturday.
Any more tips appreciated.
