    I can barely get my xj750 seca started and when I put the choke back in and give it a little throttle it bogs out. Is this a carb problem? A coworker said it seems like a vacuum issue.
    Anything will help me out a this point. Thanks

    whens the last time you rebuilt the carbs? and has it been a issue for a long time or just now recently started acting up on you?

    I have never messed with them. I bought it in 2/11 and have been messing around with it way more than riding it. I had put a aftermarket coil kit on and it was running great. Then I went to start it and it fired right up let it warm up a min and went to go and it bogged out and then it has been impossible to start . I got it started once and it bogged out with just a little throttle.

    Valve adjustment; carb service. The problem you're describing is likely a sticking or improperly adjusted float or plugged primary circuit(s); but you need to fully service the carbs and won't be able to adjust them properly afterward if the valves aren't in spec.

    I hope you've attended to the brakes already.
