That said, I have to reiterate how awesome Ca-Cycleworks is. They throw in a sticker, pen, and a candy bar with every purchase, and their customer service is outstanding.
The carb situation got so tricky I even had to use the longer fingers of my buddy Joe to help with a stuck throttle cable issue.
So the situation is that my motivation for doing all this was a 'coughing' issue on the bike. It would sometimes cough in really low gears, especially when not warmed up completely. So, I tore them down to install a Dynojet kit along with the Factory Pro needles, since those are supposed to go bad after about 5,000 miles. So I installed everything, put it back together, and now the bike will barely start and as soon as I give it gas it dies. Turning out the idle mixture screws helps it start easier, but doesn't affect the dying when throttle applied problem.
My two theories are that either I didn't reassemble all the hoses and whatnot correctly, or the main jets I put on (175's) are far too large. Stay tuned.
