Finally got the idle jets in from my order & started playing around with the mixture setup. Needed a #20 on the idle jet & had to drop to a 90 for the main jet (6,500'). This is a weird combination for me, compared to other setups I've done up here. I guess the carbs are all a bit different on the Chikuni's & they are all "custom made" with respect to the inside passages, but this is a strange one for sure.
It's finally pulling up to the top end now with this setup, but I need to change the jet-needle e-clip in the mid range pull, as it's still a little boggy in transition. I've pushed my luck enough for one day here in the 'hood making noise. Finally getting some good rpms & the top end is decent for a change. Will get a tach in place soon, add a steering damper (still a bit squirrely at the high end) & figure out the slop problem in the front end. It's running better & the frontage road is a nice, long straight where I can test the tune better & run next to the semi-trucks coming into town at the exit ramp, safely. Will report back with the GPS speeds when thing are broken in more & it's running better.
I've ordered a new brake rotor made out of 1/8" stainless steel, which should arrive soon as well. The hydraulics are doing the job, but there needs to be more meat back there with the higher speeds & heat for stopping.
