Service manual. You might be surprised at what is lurking in the Filebase and Articles sections of KZR.

I found a free PDF of the manual not long after I posted that. I found the pesky pilot screws.  One spark plug reads lean, and the other is just a little dirty, but not quite fouled. Need to adjust. changed the plugs and coil just in case.

Was there a reason to suspect the coil? Did you get one with the proper resistance?
Have you checked the fuel level in each carb? Are the carb holders old and cracked? Has the bike been parked for an extended amount of time ( months or years)?
