Re:Change the Float Bowl Needle Valve (and lose yo 4 Years, 9 Months ago  
I am awaiting some other unrelated parts for my bike before I can try all of this. Unfortunately the Barrons kit I have only has 177.5, 175 (installed up to now), 172.5, and 165 (original).

Realizing that the old saying that 'bigger is always better' is not always true, How does the size of the jet impact the performance of the engine. I can only assume that the larger the hole, the more fuel can get to the engine in a predetermined amount of time, but that the size and configuration of the carb as well as other factors (engine size, exahaust, timing, etc...) impact the ability of the engine to handle higher volumns of fuel. Am I at least somewhat comprehending how this works?

I did do some reading under the Tech Tips and other sources and this is what I am understanding.

Thanks again for your input.

Michael Hansen
