hello guys as some of you know i have bought my first KZ1000R2,
and just started her up and not running right had some poping so put the battery on charge over night and thought i would just checked the carbs, and although told they had been ultrasonically cleaned and digitally balenced this proved to be bullsh**, as they were full of crap, so cleaned them up blow air through and put them back on, also noticed that she waqs not firing on all 4 so found the fault and remade all HT leads,
so finally firied here up again and she runs rough and really load pop and bangs from the exhaust you can also here similar in the engine,

when i first put the carbs back on it had a float sticking and the result was petrol pouring into the air box big time and not sure if this has had any effect to the running as she pops and bangs big time now,
so guys has anyone any suggestions here
any help would be brilliant,
i understood that the previous owner was a memeber but dont know his name on here,

Kind regards Phill
