You now have the air screws @ 3.5 right - yea OK 40 pilots are not needed ... however make sure your floats are at the gasket level ... in older bikes the floats go high and cover for leanness down low ... hurts when you open the throttle and its a bit soft, and gas mileage. But you would be fine if they are set right.

Cool.

Na they are around 2.5 turns maybe a bit less. Should I go more? The plugs seemed an alright tan color...but I only rode it about 8 miles. LIke i said once i ride it more im sure ill wanna screw around with them. And ill check the floats, thanks.

btw, was wandering if you had a spare part floating around. where the two side panels meet in the back, that piece that clicks in between them and screws down. I lost it...dont ask.

That little part is the hardest to find ... I dont have one.
2.5 is fine ... leanness shows when its cold outside and motor is cold. You get it tan color in this weather in a short ride .. .its fine.

Yeah but today is 50 out haha. Only reason I rode.

I'll look around for that part. Maybe someone on here who eliminated their panels has one. I may have forgotten to put the two screws on when I rode today. But it does "click" on so I'd be surprised if It fell off. Also I don't see the screws laying around the garage so maybe it's just hiding.
