My R80RT rode great when I left my native Milwaukee. The carbs were synced and it purred. Since then it has started idling very unreliably while in city traffic. It is now very difficult to start and constantly wants to die if I don't hold throttle on constantly while at stop lights. I'm now in Burlington, VT and currently riding across the country for the summer. It rides decent on high speed roadways, but doesn't quite seem to have the acceleration it had 1800 miles ago. Going up some of the hills in the Adirondacks I would lose speed.
Is this an elevation issue? Will I need to constantly adjust my mixture screws throughout the entire trip? Does this indicate too rich or too lean?
Any ideas?
