RPM troubles.
I had problems with my rpm in idle and when driving and pressing the clutch.
In idle the carbs more or less had its own life. So i changed the jet pilot, went from 25 to 50. It seemed to help. But when driving in any gear and pressing the clutch the rpm had a tendency to rise.
The clutch had been a problem for a while so I kind a fixed the clutch. Loosened the nut and adjusted the screw etc. well that worked out fine. The RPM started to drop nicely when pressing the clutch. ( it still can be better i recon ).
Now to the new problem and the main reason for my cry for help.
When driving and i hit ca 4000 rpm the engine rev ( is that the right term ?) and wont continue to “accelerate”. Is this because i have to change the main jet or?
Im a newbie so be kind

I think ive ruled out air leaks.
Fully cleaned carbs adjusted floats to 24mm etc etc.
