My rebuild kit showed up today, that's a step in the right direction....
And, I can't wait to get these lights wired up.... Looks like the PlastiDip needs touch up LoL Here's a pic from last night. I hooked up my jump pack to just one of the light bars, and I was impressed!!!

Can you take a close up comparing the two needles it looks like the one in your kit is different than the one I got. Original and kit version that is.

When you tear apart the carb can you take a photo comparing the two? The kit I got the needle was different see my thread to see what I mean

Got some wiring done today....
Got my volt meter and USB charger mounted up permanently, and wired with a relay. Switched or "keyed" power triggers the relay on, then the relay feeds the volt meter power directly from the battery..... In that same harness, I routed an auxiliary battery feed back to the underside of the tail section and ended it with a WeatherPac connection. I then took my cheapy 12v emergency air compressor and put a WeatherPac on it so I'll have a battery fed led flashlight and compressor if the need arises....easily fits in my tail bag. I'm right handed, so I struggled plugging in the WeatherPac with just my left hand LMAO *side note*. I'll be cutting the alligator clips off the leads from my battery tender and putting a WeatherPac on that as well, that way it's just PlugAndPlay. No more pulling the side cover to keep the battery properly charged

Well, today i removed the 110 jet (still stock carb) and put in a 115 since i removed the cat the other day. I'm unsure actually if I like it. It ran fine with the 115, but I have a very noticeable dead spot when decelerating quickly now. Like it drops out altogether for a split second. Accelerating is fine. I'm not sure if I should go back to the 110, keep the 115 or follow the crowd and install a mikuni carb. Heres a pic of the plug PRIOR to going up to the 115 jet.

Found this I think you are to rich at 115....
ROLL-OFF: The Roll-Off technique is the quickest and is almost as accurate as the Roll-On method. First, one gets the engine warm on the way to a safe roadway. If there is room, use fourth gear as this allows more time to assess the result. Now, get the engine rpm high enough that it is on the cam and in its power band. This may need to be as high as 4000 rpm with some cam choices. Apply full throttle. Let the engine accelerate for a couple of seconds until it has settled in and is pulling hard. Quickly roll the throttle off to about the 7/8ths position. When you do this, the mixture richens slightly for a second or so. If the engine gains power as you roll the throttle off, then the main jet is too small and you need to fit a larger one. If the engine staggers slightly or has a hard hesitation, then the main jet is too large and you need to fit a smaller one.

I think you are right. I should go back to the 110.

Yeah, I put the 110 back in. I'm going to put a few ore miles on it with the cat removed and check the plug again.

I got a chance last night to test my new lighting, and I'm very proud of the new light output, and am extremely happy with how all the wiring turned out. Running my off-road lighting and USB charger off of relays was the safest way to go, and makes it very user friendly. The volt meter comes on when the key is in the ON position, and the relay powering my off-road lights is triggered when I turn on my HiBeam.
I have another video, will post it once Photobucket is done being a pain in the arse.

STILL not 100% happy with figment, but I at least have something I can live with until I track down a set that fit as they should. I didn't like the look of the Acerbis ones I painted, so it was back to trying to make the carbon fiber ones line up. I might look into some of those that tie into the ends of the bars....

I pulled the 110 and went to a 108. Honestly didn't notice any difference but will run the 108 for a while and check the plug. I'd imagine the 108 will be better.
EDIT: Got 650 miles on her. Its running great!!

Went and did a little adventuring in the rain today, and DAMN these tires are crappy on greasy mud trails LoL! I even rediscovered some hidden spots local to me that I forgot about from wheeling here decades ago....
