Default Running Rich

What's up riders. Last night my bike starting to smell like pure gasoline coming from the exhaust. Started it up today and it's not as bad but it still smells like it's running rich. What do you guys think? For the past 2 days i've been hitting some hard pot-holes is it possible that hitting all those bumps could have thrown a carb off line or something?

stop hitting potholes!
lol

yeah man, its a possiblilty you've throw something off a little bit. check sync basically and go from there.. get your hands on a wideband O2 sensor, or rig one up from the auto parts place and test away..

Potholes and crashes can mess up float heights and synch.
