carb problems

Hi Guys, The Super hawk is finished and everything was going fine until I tried to start it, I have the nicest idle it just purrs.

It's the weirdest sound, almost like a grinding or like a gear meshing I have a Yamaha Venture and they have a very noisy trany and it sorta sounds like that. They say thats normal for them and was wondering if dreams are known for that noise also. I did the top end of the engine incuding valves and...
