Good list Keith...but um.... where exactly did it print out of?

120 mains ? So you jetted it ? And 1.5 out on the pilots ? Stock is 1 5/8 for the 750 , and the 600 were jetted richer weren't they ?

It's the report I do for each set of carbs I rebuild........

I think on this bike he had an aftermarket exhaust system. 1.5 to 1.75 is what I normally set most at........2.0 to 2.25 for aftermarket exhaust with K&N air filter.....

Wow, 1.5 turns out huh? Maybe I should back down from my 3.

Yes...no matter what exhaust and air filter you run 3 is too much!
