1982 kz 1000r help

I have a 1982 kz 1000r I'm trying to bring back to life.
The bike went to a shop and came back not running correctly. My dad went down when the front breaks locked up shortly after repairs. So the bike sat for a few years.

We went through the carbs and now it just won't run right at all.


If you start the bike the idle goes real low then climbs high and stays there. Air fuel is set 1.5-3 turns out and that doesn't change anything, butterfly/throttle plates have been set to open and close the same

Those KZ1000R's were junk so just ship it to me and I will dispose of it for you. I would start with a complete tune up including carb cleaning.
