MANY THANKS TO THE R* JET GODS 5 Months ago  
Finally been fighting svs and a bunch of other crap...Doug up a 167.5 @ a local chopper shop chucked the Barons reccomended 172.5, put th needle on th 5th groove ,three turns out on the pms , a new set of NGK's. Road the crap out of her 500 miles up through the Smokie Mountains this Weekend and KABLAM!!!! Whole new bike no splutter or backfiring in the mornings the only thing is she seems a little down on power should i go another 1/2 turn on pms or up to the 4th groove on the needle. Also fuel mileage went from a paltry 140mi a tank to 225mi.. WOW!!! THANKS R* CLINIC Oh yeah put on a mustang seat too wish that thing would hurry up and break in OWCH!! Also put on HD Heritage Bars best $50 I ever spent on a bike.

As long as you have it in the 5th do the WOT and see if the main checks out. If it does go the the 4th groove and tweak the needle and PMS from there.
