I have 07 SM, the beauty (with 600 miles on it) just 15 miles ago I removed AI, and I have planned to drill out two bufflers, and drill hole on third one..(what hole size do you suggest)also I dont have money to buy freak and I will drill out bottom of uni filter and bottom of AI...I am leaving near by Houston,TX and I was wondering what will be the best ratio of main jests, neddlees, and pilot jets, how many turns...if anyone knows please help, yes I am familiar with pat jet calc...but I am asking you proS...to help me with you experience and also, when do you guys shift your gears let say FOR moderate drive...what will be appropiate rpm to do it...
I am new with Triumph and I would like to take good care of my Beauty...
Thank you

Welcome to the Sanitarium. You'll love this place.
If you're just pootlin' around, 4k is an ok shift point.

just listen to the pipes, and shift when it feels right to shift. your power on the throttle should give out a little when you reach the top of your rpm for any particular gear.

if you are ever passing through Natchitoches, Louisiana look me up. i've got an 06 speedy.
