Idle issue.

Not sure where to ask, I have my car running fine but my bike has an issue.

I figure a carb is a carb, the bike has a bank of 4 carbs, it ws sent into the shop and sync'd professionally, The bike runs great when its cold, it runs fine when your moving, but it wont idle, when im comming to a stop it also likes to die.

I checked all the vacume lines, the plugs are all new firing perfect, the idle is set correctly. but it wont idle. In order for the carbs to be adjusted they are pressure set, so there couldnt possibly be a leak could there? the gasket was replaced. and if it runs amazing at all other speeds the carbs must be jetted right.

Is my problem due to the air/fuel mixture at idle?

No, a carb isn't a carb, and this isn't an open chat forum.

If someone wants to PM with answers, fine. But, this is a clear violation of Board rules.
