My slide goes up and down like crazy when I open the throttle to 1/3 and then it smooths out over 1/3 throttle.
Is this normal?<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I'd say it's about normal, are both slides doing it the same ? Check inside the carb tops to make sure the little o ring is there as they can easily fall out if you take the tops off with the carbs still on the bike. Another fiddly bit worth checking is the diaphragm in the carb tops. If they're not positioned exactly right when you put the top back on, you don't get the airtight seal which will cause it to splutter.
Failing that, make sure you have the needle clip in the 3rd position.
