I have an 86 Phazer and have been having some problems with it. Starting out it bogs down and you have to work up the throttle to get er going. Once shes going about 1/2 throttle she runs pretty good. But the bottom end is rough. Also, sometimes the headlight dims to where its barely on, then it will go back to normal??? One last thing is the smoke, ridiculous amounts of smoke at idle. We took it to shop near our cabin for a full tune up and I dont think they did sh**. Horrible shop, but thats another story. Any info would be great. Thanks.
 

Seems it may be running rich. It could have leaking carb inlet valves, a choke plunger not closing or a ruptured fuel pump diaphragm.
A bad voltage regulator could cause the light problem. It is located under the left side footrest.
