Idle at 500rpm
On a side note, Your #1 and 2 carb bowls aren't correct. They will work but it will be miserable to try and get to the drain screw if you ever need to. They need to point outwards, like your #3 and 4.

They are already on the bike and can confirm it running normal idle again. Still rough but at least a starting point. 2 and 3 swapped... I'll have to do some reading on the differences. I've mount then the same as 2bdays ago, but now doubt if my first assembly was correct.
I'm very pleased with the result, so one more time taken everything off is no problem.

Before I forget, Would like to give a shout out to the members in this forum!!!
I've been part of many forums (Renault sport/ Kawa's/ BMW's), but for a newbee to get this level of support is really next level.
Mostly I got "buy a manual", "if you don't know just pay a skilled mechanic"
The fun from a forum is to get direct access to people with additional experience and knowledge.
Again THANKS

Yep. All of your drain screws should be point outwards to their closet point. In other words, 1 & 2 should point out to the left, 3 & 4 should point out to the right. It may be that someone before you swapped out carbs or used other bowls. It won't affect anything other than if you ever need to drain the carbs. Then it will be a pain.

To be fair, getting a manual is not a bad idea. However to only get that as an answer kind of defeats the purpose of having a forum. I would definitely encourage the mentality of, if you feel like you will mess it up or you don't know what you are doing, then take it to a skilled mechanic. If you have a general idea, sometimes it doesn't hurt to poke around. Glad to hear its running again.
