I have read the guides, i have searched the interwebs... but I would like some guidance / thoughts.
81 XS-650, BS34's stock main 132.5, stock pilot 42.5, but Needle Jet - 336 YO, and Jet Needle - 5IX11. also stock air jet of 135 and 2 1/2 turns out mix screw. float bowl height 21mm +-. AND i fully cleaned these carbs so NO hole is clogged.
Notch is in middle.
Pipes = Double D's from Pandemonium (yes i know i lose some perf on top end)
Air Filters = Uni Foam Pods
now symptoms w/ setup is bikes turns on 1st kick no chock and idles perfect. min i throttle it dies. needle position is not an issue, that doesnt kick in till 4k rpms. if i cover the air jet, OR put chock and rev it works but not 100%. hence the below setup ill try?
Searching around i have seen some peeps do 45 pilot, 140 main, 3rd notch, 2.5 turns out, and 125 air jet. This will be my 1st attempt tonight. will that work?
I have a TON of jets i got from mikesxs so if you'd like send me some suggestions.
