I have an 83 650 and I'm running into a confusing problem. Carbs have been cleaned, new diaphragms, new spark plugs, tuned the carbs to idle properly but having a weird thing when cold starting with choke.
When choked the left cylinder fires and runs but the right doesn't fire till the choke comes off.
So when starting I choke, let the engine warm a little on choke then take it off and the right will fire up. After a little more warming the engine purrs at 1200 rpm and I don't have any issues when riding.
Does anyone have any ideas why the right won't fire with the choke on or can you advise on troubleshooting it?
