A mate of mine has a mk1 1200 which seems to have been put together by a hamfisted moron

issues started a few weeks back when the bike pissed its self with fuel, found the tap & float valves were all worn.

Ive replaced them, changed the oil/ air filter etc as the case was full of fuel. Now i left the bike with the bloke who refitted the carbs, then bike was struggling to idle so he pissed about with the idle adjuster...the engine would run slower but would not increase its speed?

carbs have been removed again an intend to pull em apart tonight to see if all is well inside, but the idle thing has me puzzled. The adjuster all looks good etc?
