Not sure on the 36mm, maybe leaner settings yet than the 38mm. I run a CCK needle with a 38PJ and a 175 main, A/S 1 1/2 turns out in a 38mm carb. I ride typically from 2500 to 4500 feet and lately around 60 - 80 deg. My bike runs crisp. Slight gurgle at WOT in rain mode, crisp in sunshine. Absolutely no spooge whatsoever.
My buddies identical bike, same year, carb, cc runs like crap with my jetting. We're jet to divulge into why this is, but my suspicion is it has to do with the PV settings or adjustment.
I'd keep the CCK needle a try, they're cheap, order from Sudco. You may not like it though as it turns the bike into a fire breathing tire shredder
