Back working on the bike

Sounds like you're close. I don't know if you've got the mufflers on yet and, as Gary mentioned, you've got low miles from previous sitting - they tend to continue to run better as you accumulate miles (improvement in compression & vacuum). Hard to suggest jets, but generally the drill is to go bigger until performance suffers and go back a step. White plugs generally indicate a bit lean, but it could be fuel blend too. If you decide to go into carbs again, remember to note and get pics of fuel screws, needle and needle jet

Copy. Will do. I'm gonna order up to 137.5 mains. I also have 30 pilots. Next time I take things apart, I'll try a 135/30 combo just for shits and giggles, alongside a photoshoot of some of the components. No mufflers yet... Already tried a couple things but I'm not quite happy with the results. I hope to share that soon in another post that I recently made, but had no hits.
