What to do 2 Years, 7 Months ago  
Doc,

I had my 06* jetted yesterday. HK sideburners, AIS removed, Stock box with K&N,
Dyna 3000 at 34A. 175 DJ, 4th clip, 3.25. Dyno test showed bike was very rich.
I had the K&N filter installed and dropped the needle from 5th clip to 4th. (64 hp and 96 ft/lb torque.
The bike registered much better on the dyno, but i find it doesn't have quite as much top end acceleration over 70 to say 90-95 mph. Is this because I leaned out the needle?

No.

The needle is for the mid-range; the main is for the top end (WOT).

Try the WOT test (it's in the Tech Tips). It sounds like your main jet may be too lean and you may have to go up one size.
