For those running the PWK 28's.................................

I was just curious...............

Like the title says, are you all happy with the stock PWK needle, or did you swap them out for a different needle to tailor the jetting to your specific build?

The needle should be chosen in reference to which pipes you are running. FMF seems to like n68a while Trinitys like jjh while the cel needle is also very popular with a lot of pipes. It will make a big difference in how your bike runs if you are running the wrong one as I speak from experience.

I have an ulterior motive. We built a trail ported Blaster for the kid and we are running an OKO 28mm carb. I have to double check, but I don't think the OKO needles are stamped. On the 4th and 3rd clips, this thing was just falling on it's face coming into throttle. 2nd clip was better and the first clip is far and away the best. As of our last change, we are at 48 pilot, 1st clip on the needle, and a 172 main. The 172 is a hair fat but I didn't have a 170 in the box. And it's close, but not just right. I am trying to see if I can find someone with a PWK needle they can part ways with. The Blaster forum is really about 90% kids and they really just don't tune their stuff to the extent that OCD adults do. And those that do really dial them in use the 35mm air striker. So I figured with all the PWK's on Banshee's, I may have better luck over here. And I am thinking even if the PWK 28mm needle is not right, the stamping will give me a direction to go in.

The 48 pilot still seems a bit rich, so I will try a 45 or even a 42. Maybe that will let me put the needle back up to the 2nd clip.

I am just really thinking the OKO stock needle is not optimal and I am trying to see if anyone has a PWK 28mm needle they can part ways with. I also have a thread up in the wanted section.
