carb coughing???

[firestorm1980]

Ok brainiacs!!
Every now and then when either sat stationary or slowing down i can hear what sounds like the carbs coughing and the revs drop!!
Any ideas??

Normal ,don't worry you'll get used to it

Mine does it too, there's two options.

1) Ignore it.

2) Keep the revs high so it doesn't happen

Yep run it a little rich and fit a +4 ignition advance and a fuel pump

Proper jetting, synced carbs, no exhaust air leaks, PAIR gone.. ...and the carb fart is gone as well.

There is no need to live with it.

That told you Lloydie...

I'm starting to think you know nothing about these bikes!

Mine used to do it all the time and would cut out as well, set the tps sensor and sync the carbs made a world of difference, it still does it occasionally bit no longer cuts out,it's probably running a sniff lean bit if I remember correctly you need a weird looking gizmo to adjust the mixture with the carbs on the bike

Explain yourself young man.

A tune up is what's needed. Make sure your timing and valve clearances are all good to start with or skip that bit (but better to check first ) then as E.Marquez says + the TPS adjustment helps alleviate it.

These are the biggest carbs you will find on a production bike and are sensitive to small changes!! Things like carb balancing make a difference. You may want to fit a front vaccum take off for ease of carb syncing.

I don't . The only time I tuned to cough out was when I fitted standard carbs and cans .

From what I've read and done there's many old wife's tales on how to get not to do it .
Some work some don't even with the carbs set up perfect it still did it now and then .
Yes cleaning balancing the carbs and setting the tps helps as dose a full service but it will still happen now and then .
If you've managed to stop it from doing it great
