Actually I was down there checking the sync on the carbs! I had done them a week ago and just wanted to recheck the balances as my 11 had a little "roughness" in it's idle and on up to 4000, it always seems to bounce up and down about 1~200 RPM. But randomly, every now and then like:?

I have done shims, plugs, now the carbs. I'm really out of ideas and am starting to think that it must just be the way they are? I even disconnected the clean-air system, as nearly everyone does with the zzr's. I guess what I need to do next is pull off the carbs and strip them down for a clean and a check of the idle/air mixtures but that is a job I'm not in the mood for this month. :lol:
