bike running like crap!
my bikes been stripped down so i could weld frame,had the carbs off from the engine,the bikes now bk together ,started it up yesterday and it was well smokey, rode it tonight and the throttle sensitivitys gone to **** ,the revs feel like its lagging and delayed,hard to explain just dont feel right at all ,also feels like theres not as much engine braking as before 
just feels well weird ,like riding a different bike,the bikes doin my head in ..pos!
i had to take the choke cable of but put it bk practicly were the bolt marks were ,thats the only thing i messed with,aint got a clue when it comes to fixing carbs ,does anyone no if ill have to get the bike tuned up proply as ive took the carbs off? and if i ride it when its not setup right will this **** the engine up? any helps appreciated

Re: bike running like crap!
Fit New plugs (compression check??)
Check all ya electrical conections (maby a bad earth)
Also does that model run stick coils or coiul packs with leads, If packs & leads check they pluged in the right way round
Is it blowing (FROM THE HEADERS??)
Inlet leak (carb rubbers)
What did you get welded??
Did oyu disconnect ALL the electrics??

think your right about carb rubber boots leaking,think there was air getting in ,found something when i searched on google last night, dug something up on the kawi foums with someone having the same problem,took em off then tightened them up real tight,seemed better when i started it yesterday,gona test ride tonight so hopefully that was the problem
,yeah i welded/plated the frame at work cus it cracked on the spar,the frame was totally stripped so no electrics were connected. thanks for the help mate noticed your from uk too mate ,theres a uk section on here ,thought id mention it just incase you didnt know https://www.stuntlife.com/forums/435-united-kingdom
