    How much "surgical" skill does it take to restore carbs?

    I have inherited a '78 CB750K, and have just completed a bunch of work to get the bike to the point where it *starts*, which is encouraging. But, several of the carbs are leaking through the overflow tubes. I've taken the carbs apart a four or five times, cleaned them as best as I could, but...

    What's going on here?

    I really need some help here. As you can see in the photo, my carburetor cable and linkage is obviously very misaligned. It's probably off by a good quarter inch or so. I see no way to correct it and I see no room for adjustment from side to side. Anyone have any ideas and thanks in advance.

    Bike dies on reserve

    I have a 1980 Honda CB 750C. When I switch to the reserve supply, the bike dies. Funny thing is that even though the engine doesn't seem to be getting fuel, I can see gasoline flow through the filter when when I twist the petcock to the reserve supply. Once after the bike died after I tried...
