I've only adjusted valves on one bike before, a 2002 KTM 400 EXC. Hopefully I can find a YouTube video and it's not overly difficult. I don't have shims or anything if they're needed.

The hose between the carbs may be leaking though, if it's even present. I'm inclined to think it's either not there or it's cracked, but I haven't pulled them apart yet to see because I'm not exactly sure where it's located yet. When I spray the area between the sync screw we get some revving so something there I think has a leak.

I'm not sure where the open vent rails are yet, so I'm kind of just guessing at this point. I work mostly on two stroke dirt bikes so this is a bit more complex than what I normally dive into.
