One of the problems with the Keihin is that each series of carburetor seems to have a totally different pilot jet (Keihin calls this a "slow jet"). There is a reason that Mikuni is so popular as an aftermarket carburetor. It works, and it is easy to find both jets for. And, if necessary, also different throttle slides with more/less cutaway. More cutaway = lessor Accelerator pump type action. Less cutaway = More accelerator pump like action. But throttle cutaway is the next to the last adjustment you make....ARH
