Hi Devine, welcome to the forum.

Can you give us some more detail about the flooding problem?

Nice looking bike BTW.

​​​​​​thanks, I just rebuilt the carburetors and it will just dump fuel out in an amount that seems as though I don’t have the lines hooked to the carbs. I just pulled the carbs back off and have discovered that the rebuild kits I bought had different sized float needles. That being said three of them were larger and made my float heights higher than specs. So they should have been shutting fuel off earlier. I have now taken some 000 steel wool to the inside of the float needle seat to clean it up as the carbs were in a sad state when I purchased a month ago.
