OK - heres the problem - I was putting on the new intake - everything went fine - cruising down the coast watching the sunset and noticing no hicups - intake correctly put on. I accelerate from the light, hit the rev limiter and shift and the bike starts reving to the max with no help from me - I shut her down and coast over - as soon as the bike is turned on it revs to the max shutting itself down on the limmiter - the throttle cables are functional and not binding or stuck - what happened? the gate in the carb is all the way down - cv40 - any ideas on what to do to get a start on fixing this?

Sounds like your throttle/butterfly valve is stuck open or semi-open. Remove carburetor and diagnose up close and in person.
