Now you see why so many of us just switch to the Mikuni. It isn't really necessary, but it makes dialing in the bike so much easier. Specifically thanks to all of the other people that have been running them. Lots of examples to kind of get a baseline setup for.

I am rather impressed that the 30 pilot takes 2 1/2 turns to idle on your bike. My bike would barely idle at 1 1/2 turns on a 30 pilot, and I ended up below 1 turn out to get a smooth stable idle. That is why I dropped to the 27.5
I was surprised too. Sean had installed the carb in his apollo 250 with I want to say a 30/115, and it ran great. I think he as at about 860 feet of elevation. I was actually starting to think the 30 might be a little small after I read about a guy on here having to install a 40 pilot into is 250 tao tao atv.

Also, I read your right up a few times to get a better understanding on how each jet, and needle role. Thank you for your help!
