carb question wont keep an idle.
95 cbr f3 yosh slip on k and n air filter. my bike when reved high seems like its starving for fuel check the fuel pump that works had the carbs cleaned new plugs oil change new air filter and new fuel filter. rode the bike 8 miles and did the same thing it did before i cleaned the carbs was going 80 in 3rd or 4th came to slow down and the bike cut out and died. not sure what the problem is. do i need to do a jet kit? i believe there stock now. the bike will only stay running if the choke is all the way forward towards you and when pushed off or away from you the bike dies.

The guy I bought my bike from parked it for this very same issue.
It turned out to be damaged ribs inside the carb insulators.
I almost missed it when I was inspecting the carbs.
Plus they were hard and that made pulling the carbs a pain in the ***!
I put 4 new ones on and my bike now idles under 1000 rpm.
The old owner is still kicking himself.
Be sure to look at the insulators carefully.

has anyone here had a problem with it cutting out in the bottom of third? i cant even keep mine running in third without feathering the throttle back and forth, i thought maybe the carbs were dirty so i went and had them cleaned and what not and the mechanic said he put it all back to stock, but still the same problems....around 4k to 8k rpms in third gear up itll cut out so bad it is almost unrideable....cant even get it over 55 in third, but first and second itll run no problems. also changed out the plugs when he did the carb job....any ideas?
