ok
Do you have the adjustable main jet on top of the carb by the throttle shaft?
or it is the one on the side by the bowl lip?

The ones on the side by the bowl are lean from factory, and if slightly cruddy inside, they will hunt/surge and run chitty but just need cleaned and adjusted.
If the main jet adjuster in on top, just tweak it as they are fully adjustable.
( but can be cruddy inside also)
I just happen to like those old 2 cyl opposed twins, verses the new fool injected
"v" banks.
Nuttin wrong with new, I just like old skool and they work, and sound sweet to my ears.
Luck!
