Took the Vader 150 out today on a run.
I think I had dialed in the carburetor just right today. 110main jet, and 2 turns on the AF screw.
While the bike does seem to run slightly rich idling, and stoic at top speed, it seems to run a bit lean in the middle, especially during acceleration.
The 19t front and 30t rear is a bit hard to ride, due to the fact that I can barely reach 6k rpm.
So I've been thinking to either swap out the 30t for a 31, or 32 t.

I've ordered a 32t, because soon I'll change the oil to 10W40, from the 10w30 I'm running right now.

I ended up losing the silencer of my cheap $36 slipon exhaust
This after I had drilled out the tab in the rear, because I thought the exhaust isn't made for 150cc bikes, but rather up to 125cc.
The silencer just blew off, despite it being loctited down.
and when I found it, the bolt holding it in place was just sheared off, causing it to be catapulted out of the muffler.

It's a piece of junk. Ordering another one, which I'll drill some more holes in the end pieces, to handle the extra pressure.
