Hi all, just put a S&S super E carb on my 85 FXR, so im new to adjusting and messing with these carbs (first one) and did some reading on how to set it up and how to pick the right jets. Seems to run fairly well and made a good difference on the performance side. My issue is that it seems to stay up in RPM's when i am slowing down and come to a stop. When it's just at idle at about 900-1000 rpm on the kickstand and i rev it up doesn't seem to do it, just when i am riding the bike. like i said im new to these carbs so any help would be great, thanks!!!
