Back to the jetting.
I have now fitted an EEL needle on #3 with 35 pilot and it still seems rich low down but probably ok for my riding which needs smooth torque! Was going to use the thumper for the next event but may use the 200 just to see how it goes.

There's something weird going on with this 200 and one day I'll get to the bottom of it. I'm still waiting for my #7 slide to arrive. I did notice the current slide (#5) seems to have some of the surface coating being rubbed off so I'm wondering if this is the cause of the behaviour. What I don't understand is why it gets richer unless the needle seat is being eaten up. Maybe I just need a new carb?

What effect do tired reeds have?
