could be an issue if:
1. youre fuel pipe is kinked
2. tank breather blocked,
3. depending on how the fuel pipe is run,
and also have you checked the fuel tap

lol try the floats again, i done mine with a pony ruler too, in the end i cut up a tape measure and used that lol, then check the fuel tap works fine, then make sure the fuel pipe is run as direct as possible to the carbs, if it still doesnt work then i dont know what else to suggest lol

bahh have had no luck with getting the running right, and am sick of taking the carbs out and putting them back on, and was bored so decided to sort it out cosmetically, and I think you'll agree :smt060 :smt060 :smt060 it looks niiiiccceeee! :smt003

Think im gonna be selling it though as have no time to fix it anymore as goin back to uni, and also need cash to go travelling, so might pop up on fleabay :smt009

This had 7 watchers in the first 45 minutes!!and then I got an email telling me someone had bought it!
I made it a buyitnow with best offer listing, and figuring that these bikes go mainly based on their looks/condition of plastics, put it on for just shy of 800, which apparantly was a good price as he didnt even bother sending me a best offer! Im wondering whether I could have sold it for more lol but im happy as it was a lot more than I thought and it means I've actually made a rather tidy profit on what I bought it for which is a surprise! :smt003
