Adjust the Idle, put the airbox lid back on but remove the snorkle. Just a guess

Its the big black **** below the petcock. The **** is connected to a cable that runs to the carb. Dont waste your money on the fuel screw, its not a race bike so you set it and forget it.

Dude, I think you've built-up enough credits to buy a few periods to endthose sentences with.

Yeah, the 'no airbox lid' tells me you mightbe running a bit lean right now. I would still check for air leaksas well.

What elavation are you at?

I guess my bike is strange in more ways than one....... i have a 125 main, 40 pilot, needle on second slot, and i had the air screw out to 2.5 turns, but it was runnin rich like that..... o and the air box lid was on with high flow snorkel, so i took the air box lid off, and adjusted the air fuel screw in to 2 turns out, and took the air box lid off..... man its runnin better than it ever has..... besides that loud metal to metal knocking...... personally..... you might be rich..... might try to screw in the air screw to 2 turns,....... thats just what worked with me.

Thanks guys. It idles now but it just doesnt seem to idle too strong. If put it any lower then 1700 it cuts out?
but....it makes the bike run alot stronger. stupid me went for a quick test ride with just a helmet and pulled a wheelie 1.......2.....just shifting in to third going about 25-30 mph and totally lost it cut my knee and hand up but not that bad. The crash Bent my front brake handle and scraped my plate and light.. oh well i have new fenders coming ( the 300 fender and ufo plate holder ) ~that kinda sucks and is embarasing!
I was reading, that instead of buying the N1TC neddle you can get a .032 shim and put it on your the end of the needle. I would assume that it makes up for putting the collar second notch from top? is this all true>?
It seems to pop even more now or at least louder ones right after letting off the throttle. but when down shifting it doesnt and going down hills it doesnt (like it did before) only when going then letting off?
