Hey guys my vmax has always had a really lumpy idle. I just got done setting the valves and done a sync job on the carbs. All the carbs are clean and in good shape. I figured after adjusting the valves and doing a synce it would idle smooth but it doesn't. I also adjusted the mixture screws. New plugs and wires also. It does run great but just has that lumpy idle. I do know the cycle shop near me had the engine torn down before I got it doing something to it for the prior owner. I do know for a fact that he was spraying it since I seen the bottles on the bike when I was in the shop. As for anything else I have no idea. I just figured it would idle alot smoother after the sync and valve adjust. Do all of the vmaxes sound like this?
