Need Help! Fuel coming out exhaust on right side?

[e3steve]

Language barrier I guess, Edski! Our nations' being separated by a common language, and all that.

Or perhaps I'm just being a bit dumb and mis-reading. To me, a backfire occurs when there's an unburnt fuel build-up in the exhaust system and it gets suddenly ignited; I was referring the the back-popping (spitting) from the carbs.

Sorry for any confusion, me ol' Hondamate!

So what do I adjust first? timming or carbs, and on the carb what do I adjust first one side or both carbs, agin (bike does not back fire when warm) could the poping result in bigger problems or should I leave it.

Listen to Ed, Jason. His method works first time, every time. But, it could all be in vain if your motor's valve train isn't correct:

• 1. adjust the camchain tensioner, as per the handbook/manual
  2. adjust the valve clearances, as per the handbook/manual
  3. check that there's no valve train backlash as described in the attached pic
  4. http://www.honda305.com/forum/index.htm and click on FAQ in the left pane; follow Ed's recipe

Thanks for the reply I will try that and see how it works out for me, and I will let you know where I ended up thanks

Back-popping from the carbs is normal on twin carb models. There is a logical reason for this on our motors, which I've read but escapes me just now. I also seem to remember reading that it's only one side that back-pops(?).
EDIT: not once the motor is fully warmed.

I knew I'd read this somewhere and wasn't going prematurely senile:
