To update my previous L/R problem I did the following:
1. Undid both idle set screws and made the engine idle by hanging in the linkage and trottle wire (800RPM).
2. I then synchronized/ balanced the carbs by adjusting L/R and fore/aft linkagees.
3. Set the idle using idle set screws to 1200 rpm. By then the carbs were no longer fully synchronized (because of different kinds of faults in the linkage system), but they will be when on throttle.

It gave the smoothest running I have seen so far.....

On the 00 exhausts, there are different opinions. I haven't fully experimented to see what happens when they're opened up... I just refer to what I find in books etc.
