I had chance to have a good play yesterday , I started with float at 18mm and 58 clicks out on the needle , this was way too lean and ended up with the hanging idle , kept adjusting it until I was happy and you could literally chug the bike up a steep hill without stalling her , I thought I was at around 40 clicks but it turned out to be 29 clicks out and needle to top of slide length of 97.58mm .
Not that I'm great at wheelies but you could litterally roll the throttle on from nothing in the first three gears and lift the front wheel .
it does seem to me that with this needle the top is a bit flat compared to before though
One thing to note is that I fitted a Leo vince tail pipe before testing this needle , but I can't see that having much influence on the settings .

I should be putting a vid on later of my final setup , ignore the 40 clicks out comment as it was 29 and I'd lost count .
