Sick! Have you ever owned/worked on an RE before? All I think I know is they are a British/English company with the manufacturing in India.


Just in time for the new riding season. Nice.

I'm at 6000'+ elevation and I'm using a 108 main jet, about to go 110, so I'd say definitely up that main jet...120 or 125. What pilot? I'd go 40 on the pilot just to be sure there's fuel, but you...

I moved the JJH needle to the number 4 position or one notch towards rich. After doing so, I could not get the idle to come down below 2000 rpm, so I went back to the 38 pilot. Massive improvement....

I swear I read on MotoCult's site a while back that with the stage 3 kit the bike would get past the 7000 rpm range and closer to 10,000. It still says you get a 48% increase in power.


Oh well....

How many miles since you did the stage 3? Can you hit 70 mph with ease, now? Also, very interested in that "custom-made cable controlled choke". How you do that?
