Right now, with the breather, Mikuni and pipe, I'm running a 25/110 and I changed the mixture screw to 1.75 turns out from 2.0 turns. It had a slight flat spot, wicking the throttle when downshifting. Once I changed the mixture screw and raised the idle to spec, it vanished. Heck....now I can't remember if I moved the clip. I THINK I did to the normal "4th notch down"...but it's been a while now. I can tell you that at 3000', it's running great. The quick throttle response, roll-on through the jetting and mid-range surge has really expanded both directions on the power curve. I'll have to check the plug later...and the dang slide clip. I think I'm getting "some-timers".

So for your marketing what will you be calling this. " TT250 Phoenix " or " TT250 2LZ "
Love it ! Start selling them in san Francisco PS don't remember, will you be adding the msjft console if available?

Thanks hertz9753. It was fun for sure and now runs so good...... Mrs. 2LZ and I are going out for her first run on it tomorrow morning. I'm curious to see how she likes it. I asked her last time out, "Memorize how it runs right now, please." She put the majority of the break-in miles on it so this should hopefully be interesting.

Success! :-)
Just got back from Mrs. 2LZ Inaugural ride! Went out for almost 3 hours of paved twisties and canyons. She loves it!
Comments: "This is like a whole different bike...." "It turns and handles so much more evenly." "More power and the gears are stretching longer. Less shifting...much better top speed." "Far more stable in the corners......... "We're bonding...." (I especially liked that one) I can tell you this, that bike sounds AWESOME with that pipe on it. Deep.... Once again, CSC has done a good job with this bike....but like all CB's out of box, it's not when you receive, it's the potential. On to my next project............. ;-)

You see, it's just like a commercial. 3 hrs pretty good workout.
I see that fuel is pretty dry looking in the background don't like the looks of that.

Mrs 2lz appropriately named
Chinese phoenix :
Fenghuang (simplified Chinese: 凤凰; traditional Chinese: 鳳凰; pinyin: fènghuáng) are mythological birds of East Asia that reign over all other birds. The males were originally called feng and the females huang but such a distinction of gender is often no longer made and they are blurred into a single feminine entity so that the bird can be paired with the Chinese dragon, which is traditionally deemed male. In the ancient Malay history of the Philippines, the bird is referred to as Adarna. From wiki, was looking over what human being sited. A Mrs phoenix as it were, is paired with the dragon (2lz). Yes, its getting a bit thick , I know.

Here's the paint. It's their "7578 flat black" but compared to the other flat blacks on the shelf next to it, the cap looked more of a deep, dark gray. I got it at Lowes but I'm sure it could be had cheaper elsewhere. In our area, the store choices are slim.

biggest advantage of the 43 is reduced rpm at cruising speeds of 55-65.

I still think if the 45 comes available, I may go with that as a test but we don't have many open roads up here. I know it's running so dang well now it will definitely pull it.
