update:
Well we seemed to have exorcised the Bog demon. :whistle:
With the help of all you guys on this forum, I have a beautifully running 1978 KZ1000.
It was dirty carbs, float levels and once the stock airbox was put on, the lean induced bog was gone. It runs like a superbike should.
I still want to set the valve clearance to 10+
I put on 120 miles today. what a pleasure to ride these bikes.
I want to thank you guys for your input. I greatly appreciate it.
thank you,
Ronnie_D.
