am currently running 142&45 jets in the carb's on a 04 speedy
removed the airbox and fitted the pod's ok i know i'll be needing to tune the carbs to suit the pod's took it for a ride befor tuneing the air/mixture screws
alls good till about 50mph in top,went to throttle on and the bike was dead so to speak ok fair enough since i havent tune the carbs to suit yet
turn the screws in till they seat to get a refence point 3/4 of a turn is all they went (thats what the mechanic set them at the last time it was in for a service)
set em at 2 turns as a reference as stated by the repair manual what a difference it made big improvement in the midrange power mind you i've lost a little of the low end performance so my question is.....
do i put a shim under the needle and screw the mixture in a little to return performance in the lower rev range or is their something else i should be looking at??

BTW i'm at sea level and am running cocktail shakers with a slip in baffle
