1800bigk Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 (edited) I have been riding mine with the stock needle in stock position for a week now. It has a very very slight mid range hesitation but nothing like it had with the stock carbs. it is 40 degrees here. 175 mains Edited January 10, 2005 by 1800bigk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I suggest you get your main dialed in and your pilot circuit "somewhat" dialed in before you go to the needle. It helps narrow it down.

1800bigk Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Bansheeguy, did the BEG smooth out the midrange for you, what is your elevation & temp thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BansheeGuy_IV Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 Wes, I want to add too, that the jetting is super sensitive. The final tune on mine, came down to a quarter turn of the airscrew. I'm not kidding! 2 turns, no good, 2.5 no good. 2.25, PERFECT! I was actually making the mistake of being a little too "rough" in my jetting. My usual technique for jetting is to get them dialed in "rough" and then fine tune them. The problem with this setup is that the rough tuning is as sensitive as 1 jet size and the fine tuning actually came down to the airscrew. Just something to keep in mind, BG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locogato11283 Posted January 10, 2005 Report Share Posted January 10, 2005 might check with blue deuce and proquad101 too. i think they are both running 34mm carbs on their passion engines.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CGL needles, 50 pilots, 155-165 mains depending on temp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
