DragBikeMike,
The carb has a "high speed filling tube" which is the adjustment closest to the seat in the picture. It has a fuel line running down to the bowl. I guess this is supposed to pull more fuel at WOT. I can see after riding mine has some fuel in the line. I guess this is considered a "power jet"?

HALP!
So today was my first day commuting to work after the carb install. Bike seems to be running pretty good overall. A few things I noticed:
-Don't need to use the choke at all to start / warm up. (lean symptom?)
-Decel pop mostly all gone (rich symptom?)
-While I was on the expressway in 5th - doing about 65-70 I went ahead and went WOT to see how it would react - started accelerating fine, but after a few seconds it bogged dramatically.
Anyone weigh in please.
Does this seem like a rich / lean condition, or something else / combination of factors?

Tuning guide that came with the carb basically says it is lean, and switch to a larger main jet. It also says to check the spark plug to verify. I don't really want to pull the tank tonight. I may adjust the power jet and see if it makes a difference. Depending on weather I will be commuting on the bike again tomorrow.
