Hi AJ,

I agree with Paul. Although I've never met Larry, I understand him to be
a good mechanic and to run a good shop. It sounds to me like your loop
is in fine shape. One other thing, if it set all winter with gas in the
carbs, you might find that it runs better the more miles - and more
tank-fulls - you run.

AJ,

Based on what you have just described here, I would hold the throttle
open
and give each idle speed screw (the ones with the spring showing) one to
two
full turns clockwise and then try start the bike again and see how it
runs.
You can always adjust them as you ride to achieve the best idle.

Paul
