Any ideas or has anyone tried different jets? I am reading on other forums but no mention of our altitude or climate. I am running stock exhaust. I have cleaned carbs with Sea-foam and deep creep, changed plugs to iridium, checked air and fuel filters and bike still seems boggy and starving for fuel.
Any advice much appreciated

Yep a little bit of choke did help. Drilled the covers on carbs and opened the fuel screw alittle. Runs good now. I was tinking at the time it could have something to do with a cracked diaphram on top of one of the carbs.
