Sounds like maybe your base gasket is leaking.....have you checked the torque on the cylinder head nuts? You may want to start a thread in trouble shooting on this one and further describe the issues.

No it is not a CNS carb

As for the leaks my cousins and the one I built for my wife had no leaks on the tank and minor leaks. I am getting bad oil build up on the motor between the clutch lever and clutch plate area right below the intake but the intake isn't leaking

could be running really rich, clogging the air filter, and shutting down the airflow.

what's your needle clip setting, and what fuel/oil ratio are you running?

2nd from the top on the clip is the "california average" and if the motor's had a few tanks through it already, 32:1 mix with cheap 2 stroker oil. clean the filter sponge out with carb cleaner and squeeze all the oil out.

Happy Birthday Baird, hope you ain't too hung over for the big ride tomorrow!

This Sunday April 3rd as in tomorrow...

There is another entrance off Studebaker Rd to our meeting place south of E Barrios St that is not on the Google map below.
It is the first turn north of Willow.
Just keep turning to your right and you will end up at the bottom of the free area

We are still looking for a volunteer to be the chase vehicle. Whoever breaks down and needs a tow can buy you lunch.
An open bed pickup truck would be best but a bike carrier would do too.

We are riding back on the reversed route [ PCH ] so we can help you out on
the way back north to the park.

I will be providing my cell as a contact #

Have a spare tube for flats and bring a few parts like masterlinks, etc
and tools.

almost got the Firestone Raffle bike done, but not quite. need to get some stuff for the tank and do a bunch of other little things.

i was hoping to show it off and hopefully spark some more interest in my Raffle, but it just ain't gonna get done today.

looks like i'll be riding one of my other bikes. probably my soon to be not so top secret death racer...

here's a pic of the Firestone:
