Default New exhaust-jetted-k&n- RAN PERFECT--but now runs BAD..help

Alright, dont know if you guys remember im the guy that was posting on here the other day about not being able to get the jetting right, and then after some good replys and my common sense I got it right...So all was well until tonight when I was ridding....IT JUST DIED...so I thought it was the plug and then changed it..No luck.....finially after giving it some gas it fired (remined me of starting an old car or truck when u have to pump the gas and then when it fires up you have to blow it out a lil) the difference here was that it never ran good....sounded like it was missing and kinda a loud crackle....then it would die and I would try to start it again...thought it could be some bad fuel so I drained it and drained the bowls...new gas...NOThing new.....I am hopping that something is just in one of the carbs...i thougth id pull them off again and blow them out.....but that wouldnt explain the black smoke.......weird thing is when I pulled out that plug, it was a nice perfect tan color....its got me???[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]

If anyone has any ideas please let me know.....I would be happy if I pulled them off, blew them off and it worked...but somehow Im thinkin that wont be the case.......


I really want to get this taken care of...want to RIDE like everyone else this weekend
