Not always. Some 1000s had 28s.

Yeah, you're correct. Just not here in the States. Sometimes forget the worldwide reach of the forum myself

I am going to check the valve timing then go from there.

Valve timing

reset ignition timing with strobe

then replace carb with poor pilot fuel screw, either with second hand single carb or buy a set of Mikuni RS 34mm's.

No point whatsoever messing with carbs and ignition until you have checked the valve clearances and compressions.

You could have the cleanest carbs in the world but they would be useless if your clearances were out, especially if they were too tight.

Checking your comps is a good way to tell that you have 4 cylinders capable of compressing a similar amount of air.

Once those boxes are ticked you can start looking at carbs/ign.

Skelly.
