Wink Warning - it's a newb!

Just posting here before I go get some help with my carb to say hi. Thanks to all already for the helpful info and ideas for possible mods and work to be done on my 05 XL 1200R. I'll take a pic of it once I get it cleaned up. I put 100 miles on it this last weekend and 80 on the snowmobile 2 weeks before that. Weird Michigan weather for you.
