When I had the 40 pilot in, even at 1.5 turns it wouldn't idle period. When cold it would hold a steady idle, once warm it would drop to 1300 and then slowly foul out. If waiting at a traffic light it would stall unless I constantly blipped the throttle. Also it was a dog taking off from a stop, with varying rpm it ran good from the bottom up through though. With my settings currently I can redline every gear up to 6th, downshift hard and stop and it is sitting dead on 1500 rpm and doesn't fluctuate no matter how long it sits, and no hesitation/bog when I take off either.
Eric, if you feel like really getting into it I'd try this setup:
Pull the snorkel
128 main
stock pilot
2.5 turns out
2'nd slot from top with the clip

RE: Ok guys, a little jetting help please.
Comparing the inlet area this is what I found:
Stock snorkel: itty bitty
KDX snorkel: not bad
Dual snorkels: better
No snorkel: much better
My less than scientific description is because I don't remember the numbers offhand but the inlet area for no snorkel is actually greater than running the KDX and the stock one combined.

He deej, those greenish looking tubes you have running on either side of your airbox, is that the T-carb mod?

I installed that the day before I went to Reiter over by Monroe WA. Its a good thing I did, there were water holes over 2 ft deep. I think the bike started to float at one point.[8D]This guy didn't have them and 1 mile into the ride he was dead in the water. Plugged the main jet and had to idle back to the staging area.
