• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Fine Tuning Is Upsetting Me

Okay trying to fine tune my bike has been irritating to say the least. Main jet is 185 or 180 cant remember it has been so long since i changed it. Red needle in the fourth position, with a 40 pilot jet. Bike runs great not awsome. I have done the check to see if the pilot jet is correct and it seems to be correct. However when I move needle to the 5th and it seems to rich. Moved it back to the fourth and it seems to be just a hair to lean just off idle. If i turn the fuel screw out just a hair the performance doesn't change but the decel pop gets worse. Oh and I have no oring mod (need to get another one because the other dry cracked.

My question is will moving up to a 42 pilot jet cure the off idle leanness or am I just chasing my tail. from all the diagrams it appears it will affect the area that i need it to. Will doing the o ring mod change the lowend leaness by squirting just a tad more as opposed to upping the pilot jet.
 
Do your self a favor and forget the O ring mod
and instead get the merge racing A/P spring
and be done with it, you will never have to replace a
O ring again. I would try the 42 pilot or shim up the
needle with a 005 shim it will put the needle in between
the 4 and 5 clip
