Here is a progress report.I gave the carb a good clean and replaced the 35 pilot jet with a 30.When I unscrew the idle air screw (when it is rich at one turned unscrewed), I now have success with the engine speed rising to a peak and then dropping as it gets too lean. Maximum revs and smoothness is at about 2 1/2 turns outBut I found a 230 main jet with the 2.0 main air jet.From what I read, it seems most find the 240 main jet better.The engine seems to run fine and pull well at 1/2 to full throttle.Should I go to a 240 or should I perhaps raise the needle a notch and see how the bike performs?or should I drop the needle until I get surging at 1/2 throttle and poor performance then raise the needle one notchWith thanksDennis
