The use of seafoam is one of those topics that have hotly debated on the forum, as well as the use of high octane gas. I won't weigh in on either one.

I will say that if the carbs and all the jets and passageways were cleaned correctly, there is no need for anything additional.

If you're sure the carbs are clean the the next step would be snycing them. Actually really the 1st step is to check valve clearances, but assume those are ok for now.

Also be careful in letting your bike idle for an extended period, especially if you aren't sure if the condition of the battery. At idle the alternator doesn't provide any recharge if the battery so the longer you idle, the more you drain the battery.

I feel comfortable that the carbs I good. I cleaned the proper way and even changed my fuel filter.

I personally have always run 91 in my rockets.

I'll post a video to YouTube of the bike idling so you and anyone else can have there take on it.

I have it running off my jump pack at the moment because my battery is being shipped.

Sounds good. When you post the video zoom in on the tach for a bit. That is a good troubleshooting tool.

Copy and paste the link in Google for some reason it's not working properly.

Unfortunately I didn't do that in the video and had to put the bike back on the garage since it's late here in Michigan.

Also it has no midpipe or muffler

Did you listen to the video? I'm going to pick a muffler up tomorrow it's for an f4 but I'm sure it can't be to different. It's only $35 for a d&d

It's hard to tell from that clip but it doesn't sound like all the cylinders are firing. Post another one once you get the exhaust mounted.
