I got a motorcycle like this for free off craigslist:
and I've been screwing with it trying to get it running for the last couple months.
So I had the carbs off for the 10th time this afternoon trying to get them jetted right and finally, like a bolt of lightning from the collective unconscious of the ridemonekey, an insight occurred to me: these carbs need moar shimz.
I took a boxcutter and a drill to some plastic and 15 minutes later the bike was back together and running beautifully. Just needed those needles raised a bit. The maiden voyage was glorious.
