Hi boys, sure this discussion has been made but currently turning my Sr400 into a cafe racer. I have a Mikuni CV carb on there now and after slapping a pod filter on it's running quite lean. I just want the bike to run healthy as I use it daily for work. Will also have my gf on the back every now and then. Running at sea level pretty much. All else appears stock and not looking to make any other performance enhancements (MAYBE a new exhaust next year).
I think the routes I want to take are as follows and need some guidance:
1. Have Deus see if they can tune the current carb on there. They estimated 1 hr but could be more (i.e. $120+). Current set up is 170 main, 25 pilot, jet needle 5d132, needle jet (unknown) and slide 2.
2. Buy a VM34. Based on my readings I think I'd do 230/240 main jet, 27.5/30 pilot, P4/P6 needle jet, 6DH3 needle and 2.5 slide. Would need new throttle cable as well. My research suggests I could get this all for around $280.
Don't mind buying a new carb if it's going to be easy for me to set up and more enjoyable on the road.
Much love,
