Well I have pretty much sorted things out and answered all of my questions above. I installed all of the fancy jet kit parts I've sourced from around the globe. After the major pieces were installed I noticed that the bike was running too rich at idle and I was unable to lean it out with the mixture screws - man am I happy I installed cables with knobs on the idle screws so I can adjust on the fly. Conclusion...the 38 pilot is just too rich for my location (sea level, really hot, air density ranging from 96 to 100%) so I sourced some 35 pilots from a Keihin jet supplier here in the US.

Overall the bikes runs great - it really needed the leaner needles, but still have a little tweaking to do with the clip position. If that doesn't do it I can always drop in the HRC B needle which you can see from my graphic in an earlier post is leaner then the JHA A25A. But I'm probably going to leave it where it is for now as I want to see how a cool morning changes it. I also think I will put it on the dyne and map out the air/fuel mixture to see where it's at. I'm certain I've picked up a few HP. The plugs when from flat black to a nice brown.

Andy commented earlier that the bike ought to be able to accelerate through the entire throttle range...I'm pretty much there. I was out riding this weekend and could pretty much leave it in a single gear and just roll the throttle as needed.

Here is the current carb config:

JHA A25A needle with both clips on 3rd (middle) position
155 Main Jets on both front and rear
35 pilots
HRC red X and black Y air solenoid correction jets
Tyga Airbox with stock filter
oil injector in place

Decided to run pump gas as it will be a challenge to carry a jug of race gas on long rides so using Shell 93 (R+M/2) with Lucas ethanol treatment and octane booster.

Yes I could keep tweaking this thing, but I'm not going racing, I just want it to be as rideable as it can be which I think it is.
