I never believed it was ever the carbs. although they were rebuilt 3 times. still looking at them on my bookshelf freshly back from ductiman some months back. I did buy a spare set of used cams from a second generation Ninja. I think I will put those in and try it. if you read the post I hit some humongous deep potholes at night heading up to the devil's whip. that's when the problem started. it has a manual cam chain tensioner on it now. I have so much going on with my other bikes/job that ninja gets left by the wayside.
