We put washers under it. No one makes adjustables outside of Kits.
Cool.

Don't worry about the needles, with the addition of the mid-mains there's no need, the mid-mains tune the midrange in the same manor shimming the needles would, so why bother adjusting it in 2 places

OK but washers are cheaper and much more easier to find than the damn mid mains ...  O0 ... heck i know of someone who washered the bike (ok it had nuts) to the point of not needing a jet size upgrade. Yea ... but you can end up with a over needle that comes out the emulsion tube.
Cool.
