IIRC, he had larger than 118 Keihin stock jets. A 138 DJ sounds VERY rich to me. I'm starting with a #128 DJ with 351 kit (also have FMF Powerbomb, HMF can, KDX snorkel or airbox lid off, and ran #124 DJ w/ 250, and it was rich). But these Aus guys run different setups.

OK. I thought a 20 number jump sounded like a lot. (my bad on the DJ, was thinking backwards for a second...)

Lean it down, get that plug looking like it should, and it may even feel stronger.

Oh the fun continues, need new sprockets and a Tyre. Bike needs more top end speed as I do alot of high speed long distance riding, I tend to not use 5'th 6'th gear on the trails so I'm thinking about going 15F 40R is that a bit to much in anyone's opinion?

Where can I find a new foot-peg bracket? I'm guessing it's going to have to be genuine?

IDRIDER. What is your altitude in SW Idaho? That may explain why others setups seem rich to you. I am at around 900 ft. And a DJ128 works great on a opened up 250.

I'm around 2,500 feet and generally ride up from here, frequently to 7,000 ft and occasionally to 9,500 or more. My bike ran okay with a 128DJ, better with a 124DJ but still rich. Yes, elevation will make a difference and a 128DJ may work great for lower elevations.
