I got them off ebay, speedmotoparts I belive, no clue what style they are, I just wanted something to put me in a better position and I think those will do it. and I rejetted yesterday, I took the whole carb off the bike, the main annoyance with that is the intake tube, took me about 30min or more to get it back on.... kinda want to switch to a pod filter for this reason (if I give it a shield it wont get wet in the wet state of VT, soup can anyone?). However, I rejetted, which I thought would be loads harder but took all of 3 minutes, though the white spacer mod was lost as I stripped the heads (I was being very carefull too, used p-oil and everything, those suckers are ON there...) and put it all back together and it ran, 2 cranks and vroom! rode better, idled better, was smoother throughout, though you could definately tell that the midrange hadent been tuned, and there is no muffler or filter on it yet, so its not a powerhouse still, just smoother and less resistive to the same power it seems. oh, I replaced with a 152.5 main jet, didnt seem too rich yet, though I wouldnt reallyknow either way. when I get the slip on I ordered off ebay and throw on a pod filter, which may or may not have an intake tube running out the side or down into the stock airbox location, I imagine this jet will be perfect. I figure if I get annoyed with the midrange I can also just order new screws and drill those out or something. there never was a big backfire on shut down before, but this time, after riding it around (not just idling) it REALLY backfired, 12ga style.... before it just kinda poofed.... it was snowing out, dont know if the temperature or air density would have created a different condition to allow for the ending backfire, and the chinga ching bing bing is still there, maybe it is the speedo cable, though there was plenty or greese inside
