Re: pilot screw setting

I'm a bit lost here, the air filter flows more air, and the exhaust mean it will breathe easier and run leaner some more, so won't i need to just adjust my needle heights? seems alot more simpler than removing my air filter thus running it leaner possibly causing an overheating issue?

Re: northwest area.

carb balancing sorts idle problems and acceleration troubles down low, high up like that is a jet size issue.

Re: pilot screw setting

Yea, if i'm giving the bike alot of stick when i hit 7000rpm it won't rev out anymore. I was wondering if a dynojet kit would fix this?

Pilot settings are 1 5/8 turned out. Any higher than that and your bike must be running extremely lean. Its not 2 and a half like most bikes, only 1 and 5/8ths.
