Hey guys, I just got a green 250 and I'm planning on going home to shim my needles and do the snorkel mod this weekend (I'm at school bike is at home

)

Anyways, I read on the kawiforums that if I do this mod, my bike runs a slight possibility of being too lean at wide open throttle, and that runs the risk of burning some engine components. Anyone know anything about this?

I currently have an AP full exhaust on it. I'll probably do 3 washers, but does anyone know about the burning / overheating the engine issue? I don't wanna do this if it risks my engine being too lean and overheating at WOT.

Any input is appreciated, thanks.
