So my bike V twin was running at a regular idle prior to my shenanigans...
I wanted to balance my carbs so I needed to take the vacuum screws out, one was managed easily and the other went to $#!* so I had to partially remove the carb (Only partially because I didn't know what I was doing and didn't take the throttle linkage off or the cable that controls the compression to both) Finally after using a hack saw to get the screwdriver something to grab I get the vacuum screw out and reinstall the carbs and air filters.
After doing this, I try to start the bike up and it was trying but no dice.
So attempt number two I pull out the choke and it starts.. but at full choke it is running at a low idle and when I push the choke in the idle literally sounds like I'm slowly chugging a beer...
I'm thinking the problem has to do with me throwing the throttle and compression cables out of whack as no other adjustments were made to the bike.
Thanks for the thoughts,
Nate
