I'm in Cheyenne, at 6,000 feet, and now have one of Lancer's carbs and a UFO, but when stock, I had a 52.5 pilot, 3 washers on the needle, and a 147.5 main. Ran well, with a tan plug, and 45-50 mpg, depending on my right wrist. For those who might be trying to tune a VM carb at altitude, with a VM carb I have a Q2 needle with the clip in the middle slot(3), a 12.5 pilot since soldering the pilot jet shut didn't work, a 170 main, two turns out on the air screw, a B7(one step hotter) plug, and the UFO in the leanest position. With the needle in position 2, mileage was 44mpg, now it is 48mpg. I am extremely sick of removing the seat and tank, and would like to kick the rear end of the guy who drilled the holes in the Corbin seat that didn't match the holes in the Suzuki. But the bike runs extremely well, accelerates as Lancer said it would, and has hit 90. The stock bike struggled to get 80. I have zero backfires, but no choke is required to start it.
