13-52 we usually use 2,3gear so is ok or the best in some situations. Soon I will upload a short video from last race,to see why I like this combination.

This is very low, for extremes. I had 13/50 with good results, a bit short for transfers.

Went 13/48 yesterday for testing, stock setup, and it really shows carb faults, as it extends gearbox and I get very slow transition on pipe, and drop rpm when upshifting. I have no issues with 13/50.

Still, husqvarna 449 is faster in rolling start.
I think there is still some power waiting in the carb settings.

Where do you buy your needles?

I have used 13-49 13-50 but 52 on rear is best option for my terrain and riding style. And I like this combination because I feel the clutch less abused on gnarly situations.

Needles I find on local enduro shop. Suzuki needle is a bit hard to find in this part.

Not working, but I checked before you put link.

I've put NECF suzuki needle on order.

Yah,I remove the video from YT from mistake. Anyway I'm working on long version video from last race.

NECF For me is a bit too rich. I'm planning to try some Suzy needle ,like NECG.

Currently using N3EG #3, PJ 35, MJ 178. Close to perfect.
Still rich down low, revs nice, good mid hit.

Need to try it in slow, steep, slippery twisty terrain, but it is dry now. It might be a bit to lively for throttle control, but it can move forward at incredibly low rpm without stalling.
Power wise, it seems like cheating mode is enabled.

#2 seems too lean, #4 burbles.

You might like the N3EH and CH needles. If you're actually rich down low, that may be a step in curing it.
