I'll give this a try.

Yea it was running fine before. Its put together correctly, and it was the stock air box before.

Yes it was running well before i did anything. I cleaned out the carbs cause its an old bike, and they were pretty gunked up so good thing.

It was stock before, this is the first time firing it up since switching it to pods.

Yea I took carbs apart and cleaned real well. As far as an intake leak, i've sprayed carb cleaner around the boots and the rpms don't jump up or anything. Is there a better way to check?

Working on an 83 440LTD, its got UNI pod filters, stock jets. After its warmed up, idling just wants to shoot up to 4rpms and stay there. Air/Fuel mix screws all the way down doesn't seem to affect...

So I picked up a TC Bros universal weld on hardtail kit. It came with 20mm slotted axle plates. The axle on the 440 is smaller, 17mm. Is this going to be a problem? Should I cut the original...

looks like they are out of stock right now, so im going to try and see what i can do with the stock carbs. I'll let you know how it goes!

If you have details and pics available that would be awesome! I could def do the 200$ for the setup. Thanks

Now I had never really thought about doing that, I like that idea. This is my first build so most of this is new to me.

As far as what I plan to do with it, is just really cruise around town, not really looking for high performance or speed. I guess I'm probably just going to give it a nice cleaning and see what I...

I'm working on a 83' 440LTD. I'm going to be removing the mufflers and adding clamp on air filters to each carb. I'm getting ready to tear the carbs apart to clean, etc. Should I replace the jets...
