Left carb backfiring thru carb after it warm up
The carbs are probably out of sync. Set the carbs so that both slides crack open at exactly the same moment. Next, balance the carbs by disconnecting one spark plug then turning the throttle screw on the runing carb to a slower and slower rpm until the bike stops idling on one cylinder. Now reconnect that plug and disconnect the other. Do the same thing to the point the engine dies trying to run on one cylinder. Now start the bike up with both sparkplugs in place. The idle speed will be high, but now the carbs are in balance. Turn each throttle screw down in equal portions until proper idle speed is attained. It would be a good idea to set the valve lash also. If the backfire continues, chances are the valves need to be re-seated. Re-sync and balance the carbs after the valve re-seating. Please rate my answer. Thanks.
