Sounds like you just paid your initiation dues to the stealership.     I haven't heard of a stealership doing a carb cleaning job right yet from anyone in this club.     I believe their idea of cleaning the carbs is pulling them and shooting some carb cleaner from a pressureized can through anything they can aim it through and then misadjust things when they put it all back together so it will run.    

My recommendation would be to keep using Seafoam every couple of tanks of gas, try to get to one of the wrench sessions, not sure where you are located, and have one of us that know what we are doing pull them and get everything set right!     If you are not in the area, the procedure is posted on our website under Tips & Tricks.  

The best advice I can give you is to not let it sit without being run for more than two or three weeks.  If you just can't get out and ride that often, put some Seafoam in the tank and run it for a while to get that into the carbs and then at least roll it out and just start it and warm it up till the fan starts running.

I will start it if it sits more then 2 days.  I have not run the seafoam yet but I will start putting it in once a month or so.  I used a whole can in my truck that sat for 3 months, it made a big improvement.
