06 300EC first ride impressions on 1st and 2nd gear.

Some people are up in the 48's on the pilot while I am running a 35! So you can see how big the variation is. For reference I am setup as follows but as said you have to plot your own course on this one to get the best:-

35 pilot
#N1EF needle on 2nd clip
178 main
#7 slide
50:1 oil, high quality pump gas

I find the LTR needle, not sure which one I have, maybe the "0", works well on 2nd clip as well, probably cleaner as well but I get a slightly gentler transition from the N1EF needle. Idle is ok but not wonderful, never seen a Gasser with perfect idle but some say it is possible with a #9 slide. I also think our gas / petrol / fuel is more consistent in the UK. Most UK guys agree on jetting but there seems to be a wide variation in the US even at similar altitudes.
