Please help! My 80A starts ok and goes ok. The problem is when shutting the throtle from speed and wanting to blip the throttle on a down change, the bike "gurgles" as if choking in fuel. I have a very "open" Bassani 6:2:1 (76mm baffle) and K&N drop-in filter fitted. My Secondary Mains are 90. There is NO Primary Mains (only a brass jet way down the tunnel) and also NO Slow Jet plugs fitted. The float levels are actually slightly lower at 18mm as opsed to the 15,5mm specified.

Hi Eben,

Assuming that your bike was running OK before this happened, I would think one of the things to check would be your air cut off valve. Check it for holes/leaks in its diaphragm.

Here is a link to a replacement if needed...........
