Well I've got the hawk put back together and it is running quit well! I did all the troubleshooting regarding this issue. I followed all the input you guys gave me (which I appreciate very much) and still it was giving me problems even after cleaning the carbs. Then I remembered I rebuilt the petcock a few weeks back... I tor into the petcock and found that the brand new diaphragm was crimped! I fixed this put everything back together and the bike runs great!

Having help is great. Succeeding by figuring it out for yourself is even better.

Alright... the bike is running fine, pops off right away and is getting plenty of fuel at cruising speeds. I am noticing something new though... when cruising, if I hit a bump usually the seams on the freeway (some of those can be doozies especially after winter or any bump for that matter) the bike pops like it missed. Any thoughts on this one? has this happened to anyone?
