and the owners assumption that 150 PSI will blow all the stuff out of the tiny holes is a false one.... you could hit it with 250 PSI and still not unplug those tiny circuits.... I had a plugged idle/air jet on my Triumph I hit it with 110psi and no change at all .... i almost had to drill it out to get that piece of rust out of there ... once i did it ran fine.... you have to verify that all the circuits are clean..... you can't just blast it with an air hose and be confident it is clean.... not any more back in the 1970's ya could because they didn't make the passage ways so darn small as they do now ... now you need a jet cleaning tool and super small bottle brushes and LUCK to get them clean
I know.... I did that to my Ninja 250 and the carbs are still dirty ( i'll get to it again eventually)
seriously if you want it to run right some time soon.....send them to Ducattiman
it's a reasonable price for expert cleaning that guy KNOWS what he is doing !
PM here and talk to the man !
....
now where did my tinfoil hat get off to ?

Bob......
