hey guys, just wanted to introduce myself.

I just picked up a 1999 f4 and trying to get some riding in before the season is up.

i do have some questions though;

The bike came modified so I am in the process of returning it into stock form. It runs super rich right now where it loads up and i can shoot fire out the muffler if i rev it hard. I found that fuel would be dumped into the carbs even though the bike would be off.

i took apart the carbs from the engine (my first time dealing with carbs; only been familiar with fuel injection) and found that there was some slight sand residue and some hair believe it or not :(

I cleaned out the carbs, the needle seat and float are good, but i did find the slow jets broken. after i got the slow out, i realized the the jets are huge compared to stock. (same goes for the main jets)

so my question is after i get rid of the micron and put on the stock exhaust, and replace the jets to stock specs, is there anything else i shud keep in mind of?

thanks for the help.
