The bogging is hard to diagnose online, it's really hard to tell if it's a bike issue or a technique issue. If the new carbs are doing the same thing as the old carbs, and the new ones were confirmed OK, then it does seem less likely there's something wrong with the bike. Is there anyone nearby who knows these bikes well who could help troubleshoot it with you?

^That is the thread I made a while ago when I was troubleshooting, hopefully it explains my problem a little better. I really don't think it is a technique issue - my boyfriend who has been riding all kinds of bikes for a long time is the one who noticed the bogging

Edit: This wasn't my original problem thread, not sure where that one went. This was just trying to get the carb on correctly, when my issues first occurred
