I have de-smogged. Thanks for all the suggestions. Bow season has started here in AR, so riding is limited to the middle of the day so I dont **** off all the guys on my hunting lease or in the Management Area. It is time to start spending some time tinkering. This site is such a great resource.

here's your solution, under $40 total but you'll have to act fast...

That would be part of the solution, but I think he can afford to bump the needle up one notch and possibly go to 128 on the main.

+2 Definatley bump the needle to the second notch and since acgill is in AR and probably at sea-level, I would say the 128 could very well get him there.

No doubt about you HAVE to get at least a slip on to make a improvent, you'll be amazed at the difference.

Got the 300 exhaust and header. Thanks for the heads up. I looked back at my mods and I am running the needle clip on the second notch. I am going to add the new system and I will see if that makes the difference.

Just a fyi ac, first time I re-jetted the bike (wow 1.5 yrs ago), my muzzy was on order and I did the 1/2" exhaust drill, and the bike had solid pull to 8K+ (obviously the muzzy improved it) but I still think you have a carb issue to address. So try not to get bent when you put on the 300 header and exhaust and it does not fix the issue. But I hope it does.

With that 300 pipe you just got I was running a 125 main, stock pilot, 2.5 turns on fuel screw & the NT1C needle on the second notch. I did both the KDX snorkel then no lid at all--I liked the latter.

Something else to make sure you do is enlarge the slide hole in the carb. I think I did 7/64 the first time then enlarged SLIGHTLY to #32 when I went to the DJ kit.

I live at pretty much the same elevation.

Also, just to be clear, the second notch means second from the top.
