Well on my 03 shee,I have T5's +4 timing and 2into1 uni filter.I sold my old pipes this winter andf bought some T5's off a fellow member here and thought I would throw a little richer pilot jet in it for the colder riding and a size up on the mains.Ever since then it will only fire on the right side when The choke is half on.Shut the choke off and the right cylender sounds like it is running out of fuel and quits smoking and no sound from it.I've tore the carbs apart 5 times now and cleaned them along with taking the pilots and mains out and running a paper clip threough them and cleaning them.Plenty of spark,reeds look good,filters clean,TORS removedbut still have the boxs on top.Its gotta be carb related but I don't know how.

Forgot to add I did a search and everything I came up with I checked.I'll go through the list.

Plenty of spark,reeds appear to be ok,crossover choke tube in place and in good condition,filter is clean,tried switching the slides around ,checked for kink in gas cap vent tube,run paperclip through all the jets.Anything else to check for?

You probably have some crap in your right carb.

 

See if you can shake the bike really hard from side to side and get it to fire w/out the choke.

 

 

You ultimately need to pull the carbs off and clean them though. Make sure to fire some carb cleaner directly through your main jet and make sure there is no crap in there.

Is this a problem only at idle? Or at higher RPM's also?

You should check you intake boots for a crack, cause you might be sucking air in before the carb.

Alright guys,I got it fixed.My buddy finally came over and figured it out in like 10 minutes.The little needle thing for the float was stuck almost all the way closed and wouldn't let enough fuel in to run so it would run the bowl dry and starve itself.With the choke on,aparently it supplied it with just enough fuel to run.The floats moved when I had it apart so I never looked to see if the needle for it was moving also.Runs like a raped ape now,just gotta get it dialed in on the fine tuning.

I probably wouldnt use a paper clip. They can scatch and gouge the inside of your jets, cusing a bigger problemthan needed. Take the nozzle and pit it right up to the jet and clear it out.
