MISCELLANEOUS INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR BIKE’S JETTING SETUP:
With skorkel in, 2 to 2.25 was just right. When I pulled the snorkle, I started with AP/Dynojet recommended 3 turns and it was richer than Oprah, and just as slow. Dialed it back to 2.5 turns and it was much better, but still just a bit boggy at low revs, with a glorious rumble but not pulling hard. If 3 turns was rich as Oprah, 2.5 was MacBeth: "Full of sound and fury, signifying nothing." Against all odds, 2.25 is just about right. Maybe a tenth of turn lean, but dang close to perfect. Nice pull throughout the revs, almost get it to pop on very hard engine braking but not quite. Drops revs well after accel. Wierd that 2.25 works when 3 is recommended, but there you go.
