I can't get bike to rev off choke, only with 1/4 choke still engaged.
Was thinking it might be an air leak (as well as idle setting) as received some other advice that it might be the choke plungers needing to be rebuilt - o-rings and so on, apparently a common fault on Gen 1 SVs? I did grease the o-rings in the Choke plunger assemblies and check the springs, choke issue wasn't there before I pulled carbs.
Possible I've got an air leak somewhere from not installing carbs correctly.
I've got it booked in for a carb ultrasonic clean and rebalance now, just going to have to swallow the expense.
Hopefully the mechanic can resolve an air leak issues, I'll let him know of potential issues.
