You are probably not doing anything wrong,except you didn't tell us what you have. I'm assuming its a two carb model, CB or CL 305. You need to look into the carb on the right side. It sounds like the float needle is stuck and allowing way too much fuel in. Fix that and clean up the spark plug on that side and it may be OK. Let us know! Good Luck, Kustommusic

Sorry, its a 67 superhawk, thanks for the info going to check that tomorrow I don't know why I didn't when I set floats. I've been doing some reading on this site and there is another post that says it could be the slow jet plugged or passage? I guess I check that while I'm there anyway.

Thanks Jason

Pin seems to be fine, soaked carbs for a day blew out all holes and put back together, seem to have same problem?? drop it off at the shop for them to take a look. Does anyone know of a mechanic that is really good at working on these older jap bikes in ontario?? I'm findind it hard to find anyone that will touch this bike.

Possibly a bad float?
