Just got it firing!
Loopframe, original square slide DelOrtos. In storage for decade, carbs cleaned several times, including disassembly of the internal pump mechanisms. Bike now runs well, but only if the chokes are on just a bit. If forced to wide throttle, does not need choke. But idles best on closed chokes. Plugs are dark. Currently has well-cleaned K&N's, but will behave the same even if no air cleaners at all. Raising the needles a notch does not change things either.
Classic thinking indicated changing the slides, but why would this be necessary?
Ideas, guys?
