Thanks for all your help,
Ox U2U,d me and came over on Thursday evening and took the float bowls off and they were full of what looked like green algae you get on the side of a
fish tank!
Most of the jets were blocked and crusty.
half an hour later the carbs were back on and a bit of fettling and she was ticking over      
She seemed to rev clean through too, bit loud with only the headers on though
Thanks again to OX for putting himself out to help a bike engine numpty - at least i will be able to do it my self next time
And yes i did fire it up again after you left
I am a happy chappy now
ATB

But its a nice sound. Not as lous as without the headers though
I replaced the screws that hold the float bowls with cap heads. That way I could remove them without having to take the carbs off. Handy for setting
float levels or changing main jets.
Glad to hear you got it sorted.
