Check the boots on the carb mouths, too, if you haven't switched to pods.  Had a shop misalign one.  Ran rough until it left me stranded.

I'll check the ignition but I think it's related to the carbs. Has anyone ever tried riding with a failed diaphragm in one of the carbs? What about a failed float, possibly flooding one cylinder? I didn't ride much last year but I pulled the carbs and cleaned them out real well in 2013. The bike was running well last year and I laid it up with non-ethanol gas and fuel stabilizer last fall. I also started it and warmed it up twice over the winter.
