Very nice! Good write up too! Are you going to power the GPS with DC power from the bike?

Previous jetting was 128 main (Dynojet), 40 pilot, 2-ish turns out on the screw.
It's such a bugger to nail that jetting down. Even though i knew I was probably rich, I still had occassional "pops" on deceleration (which I've always thought indicated lean).
Same thing today with the 331. I'm thinking it's got to be rich (at least I hope it is, at 2.5 turns out).
But I still heard some popping on decel today. I'd say that's not really a concrete indicator of anything.
I sure hope it ain't lean cuz I don't got any bigger main jets. [&o]
Thunderchild - the GPS is hardwired to the battery (with an inline fuse). I got the power cable off eBay for just a few bucks.

That wasn't me, you must be thinking of Iowaguy or something. He's been waffling lately.

No way!! I'm keepin this little machine for the long haul. That wasn't me, you must be thinking of Iowaguy or something. He's been waffling lately.
Motoman method - I rode 35 kms today and I was on and off the gas hard most of the time. Anywhere from 3000 to 8500 rpm or so. It felt real good, pulled hard.

Nice job Jason, maybe hear you riding around the lower mainland sometime,
after all the rain we had it was great to get out in the sun to day.

what type of oil are you running? and did you tell them to media blast your cylinder? if they're going to do that to mine, I won't send it to them. I handpicked my 300 cylinder thru matt to get a jug that had a like new exterior finish to match the rest of my bike. i see no reason to ruin the outside appearance when you're just boring the interior wall. maybe i'll call them and indicate rather assertively i do not want the cylinder blasted.
nobrakes- did they blast yours too?
