Welcome from Texas!

We understand you with no problem, no need to apoligize.

Are there good windy roads to ride your 400 in your area?

Juan,,  if the bike was sitting for a long period I can imagine the carb bodies could be deteriorated beyond use-I have seen that.  I have a set of carbs with one bad body but the other three are good.  I bet it is hard to get parts in Argentina ::)  If you have trouble with getting parts, try posting in the bikes and parts wanted section of this forum...Larry
