what exactly did you do when you cleaned the carbs? did you just hose it down with cleaner or take them apart?

bogging at high revs sounds like floats or needle problem.

or starving for fuel... Check your fuel filter, and pump output.

by synching them, I mean basically balancing the air flow to each cylinder. do a search on carburetor synch, you'll get the idea. I've done every single carb rack I've owned, some more than once.

no problem, a good carb synch never hurt anything.
