Thanks to the both of you!

I will try changing the plugs and clean out the carbs today and let you know
the results!

Hi David, I've got an '83 60E and just had the same problems. Impossible
to
go from F to R without stalling, lumpy idle when warm, runs great at
higher
rpm, finally resulted in total non starter. Compression, spark, and fuel
to
carbs all checked out. A mate who's a motorbike mech, stripped and
cleaned
both carbs (full of s**t, the carbs, not my mate!!). Runs like it's
brand
new now.
Hope this helps.

Gordon
