Yeah, I don't remember exactly what the problem was, but it resulted in the needle not seating all the way into the needle jet which resulted in a very rich mixture. As I recall, the need wasn't fitting all the way into the slide which resulted in it riding too high.

If the only place you have problems is hills, maybe going to the 2nd notch from the top will fix it, but I'd still check the needle. It will be obvious because it wont go into the slide all the way upto the clip.

 

Well guys,fitted 128 jet nedle clip on number 3.Rode bike up and down some narley hills for 75klm's.Not a problem.Bike went like it never has before.Plenty of power lifting front wheel of the ground and never missed a beat.Thanks to the guys who took the time for helping me.Thanks fellow klx's.ps eat my dust tintman!!!!

 

I don't mind trying eating your dust for a change, It will mean you will have to get in front. As long as I don't have to wear the dust all over me like you did with my dust this morning.[:-]

 

So you moved the clip from4th to 3rd position from top and stayed with the 128 main, right? Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Tintman say he's running those same settngs, but still having problems
[sm=smiley25.gif][sm=WTFsgign.gif]Glad you got your bike running well, but something still isn't right in Kansas. I mean you both have the same bike and the air swirls through your carby in the same direction because you're both on thewrong side of the equator [8D]

 

Yes you are right, my carby already had the correct jetting but I hadn't fitted the Staintune muffler. The better exhaust flow must have been all it needed to correct what must have been a slightly rich mixture. It's strange though that when we both had standard pipes our bikes ran very different to each others with the identical jetting and mods.
