Any final thoughts?
Check-
Carb body fuel lines + air lines.
Check vacuum hoses
Check carb rubbers
Float height
Any thing else that would cause it to stall when stationary and then take a period of time before willing to start again, when it will then start easily (about 30secs to 1min)

Will be compression testing her later on (fingers crossed ), but still quite possibly an issue with the pilot air screw / jet.
We've been ferreting around and not found anything too obvious, however does any one know about the big brass blanking plates under the carbs?
I seem to recall something about drilling them off to get access to air screws?
That seems to be an unknown territory/unprobed area?
Any thoughts? Apparently it is a BSR 34 Mikuni carb. ____________________ Top cat

We tried drilling them. It is not the usual thin brass plate. Luckily we stopped before we saw any airways. Seems the fuel mixture screw would have been blanked off originally (not now), but the air screw cannot be accessed
No obvious way to get them off, annoyingly.
I might swap the float needles around, just for funsies. See if that changes anything.
We did try raising and dropping the main jet needle, no obvious solution.
Bike will be for sale soon, hoping for 400-500 as a runner with mot and a fueling issue. In Manchester area now. Anybody wants a cheap project to annoy me with by getting it running beautifully, pm me. ____________________ Top cat

How about this.
https://gstwins.com/gsboard/index.php?topic=71048.msg853189#msg853189 tl;dr = O-rings behind mixture screws cause idle issues with gentle leaking.
We are off to investigate after dinner. ____________________ Top cat
