MAY have found PART or THE PROBLEM??!
hey guys.. u know i've been having alot of trouble with my bike and figuring out the surging problem i am havning.... well I'm not sure if I found the problem, but I am ordering more parts and gaskets.. and reading the manual to see what I am getting into... it says under clutch and disengage issues if the clutch does not disengage or moves foward there is a problem and lists the issues... now does that mean in first gear... i can let go of the clutch.. and it will ride without touching anything... is this a problem? should my bike be cutting out when its in first and i let it fully go and i'm not touching anything? also when im doing 70 mph.. it will somtimes be okay, but lately really it will pull back and forth really hard... anyone have any ideas while i'm redoing this? thanks,
Shane

The idle thing is fine. It should pull in first gear on its own with the clutch out - (I re-read your post a couple times, I think that's what you are describing???) It shouldn't pull forward with the clutch pulled in though. If it does, bleed the clutch and clean the slave again. If it still does it, there's a gasket in the slave that probably needs replacing.
Sounds like a nasty carb hiccup to me if its pulling back and forth at 70mph.

Trying to diagnose a bikes problems over the internet is damned near impossible, but I'm quite sure everyone here will give it a shot.
I'd work on getting it back to stock trim, and getting it sorted as bone stock as possible before making any jetting changes. If the copper gaskets are toast, that could contribute to running issues, as could dirty carbs. You'll be trying to "Band-Aid" the problems with changes to needle height, or jetting.
