Stalls on kickstand, not on center stand

[Mervmaster]

I did some searching but no luck.

1973 with stock carbs and air boxes. Fuel system is very clean.

It idles great but stalls when leaned left Or placed on the kickstand. I’d does not do this when learned to the right.

I’m going to double check my float height as it almost seems to flood to death. Any other simple check that you all recommend?

Yes, check the float levels, and when you do, make sure you measure each side or "bulb". The floats are often twisted on the bracket and one side sits higher or lower than the other. If you don't measure both sides, you won't catch this. It's a pretty common issue and easy to correct by grabbing both "bulbs" and twisting them which ever way they need to go to straighten the float out.

Thanks, I ended up ordering new floats. One had a pinhole and the other had some repairs that may have been weighing it down. we'll see whats next after I reset the heights and install.
