Rebuilt the carb today using a 135 main, 38 pilot and an "R" needle and an "EZ Just" idle mixture needle. I used the factory numbers for my elevation, and combined with the "R" needle, it worked great. It cleaned up nice and does it scream! Mid-range is a whole new world! Before the rebuild, it had a stutter at any constant throttle position. Really irritating. No More! This was definitely worth the effort.
The only other fuel related upgrade will be a KLR choke cable and lever relocated to the clutch pivot. Parts on order. It will be good to get rid of the "push me, pull me" knob on the right.
From here we do the manual cam chain tensioner and then on to electrical. The bike has been, well.... neglected in terms of electrics. Nothing that can't be fixed, though, and it will be, soon.
