Spooner Dude,

Ive done this mod on the same year model. Dont forget you also need to:

Turn all 3 mixture screws another ONE complete turn OUT to enrichen the mixture or it runs lean and the idle wont settle !

Replace the restricted Mikuni carb rubbers (with id dimple) for smooth unrestricted Keihin (CVK) ones !

I would have thought that 115# mains were slightly on the small side ive got #120 mains and only one copper washer under each needle.

Some folk who presumably live at altitude go to #125 or#130 but I would have thought they were on the big side.

Ive also changed the plugs for NGK Iridium ones and am happy ive got mine just right - smooth power delivery no flat spots and no popping !

By the way what is your VIN number and mileage (kmage) just so that I can plan my alternator bolt crisis later on !
