WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! I AM A RACING GOD, ALL BOW BEFORE MY 40 YEAR OLD BIKE, YOU THERE! YOU'RE NOT BOWING! WOOOOOOHOOOOO!!!
Ok so that's out of the way
190 mains
25 pilot
needle in 2nd from top position
air screw 1.25 turns out.
XS pods (I know I know, I should be using them foamy things, but they're ugly)
air jet removed
Bike starts first kick with choke, choke off after I put on my helmet. Bike pulls strong up to 5k where I encounter slight stumble*, more throttle solves this very quickly. Power seems more readily available throughout the rev range with the application of more throttle. Sound through the pods is worth the extra $$$ alone.
Conclusions,
More fine tuning is needed. Must get vacuum gauges and tweak my cables. Further reading of the Mikuni manual and various other tomes of ancient lore is a must.
*stumble happens with whatever carbs I have on and is not indicative of any failure on the part of Mikuni co. or its subsidiaries.
