I've been searching posts but can't seem to find a definitive answer to my issue. My Bonnie has been a bit slow to fire after it is warmed up. I even had a bit of a backfire(?) in one of the carbs yesterday while trying to start it. I am pretty much stock except for AI removed and rear baffles removed. My idle screws are at 2.5 turns out. Elevation here is 6500 feet and the bike only has 800 miles on it. I tried turning the idle screws out to 3 turns but it seems like they are just about to fall out. How many turns should they open before coming out? Any ideas about the hard starting? TIA.
