Nice bike but it sounds like his accelerator pump is off line.

Oh, I don't know, it doesn't sound too bad. Maybe not quite warmed up and the typical clutch rattle, but maybe pretty good otherwise.

WOW! :o Then mine sounds awesome! :laughing-rollingyellow:

Actually, mine sounded a whole lot like that until I did my carbs. Getting that accelerator pump working again sure did wonders for my throttle response,

It's SO hard to tell from video audio, but that doesn't sound like it's on all 6 to me. The cylinders that ARE there seem to pick up pretty well to the pump in response to the throttle.

You mean that "bogging" sound? I caught that too.

It's really hard to tell from the video, but that bike just doesn't scream 6 cylinders. I could definitely be wrong though.
