I can live with that!
So, it seems that dialed in jetting and proper float height will solve the gas guzzling nature of the late model Gasser.
hard to beat those numbers. I'm temped to pull mine back out and adjust it closer to your height. In the summer time we ride a lot of high mountain trails and can make over 100 mile loops. In situations like that we carry extra gas in our packs, but having an efficient bike it key. I wonder how much your head mod plays into the fuel efficiency?
