Hi all
I currently run 20 pilot, 56 needle 2nd position from top, 310 main, standard slide 6, filter and franspeed super tourer pipe.

I need to make the mid range richer as when it comes onto the needle it's a tad on the lean side at just over 1/4 throttle at approx 63mph.

I've tried moving the clip down but this makes the ride awful.

I'm sure I've read somewhere that it's best to run these on a 57 needle which is weaker than a 56 but having the clip. Near the bottom rather than the top two settings :?

Would I be right in thinking a 55 needle would be better :?:

Just wondered if anyone has a similar setup that may help with the mid range.

Thanks
Mike :)

Cheers for the input guys much appreciated.

I'm thinking maybe my pilot jet maybe on the small side. Will try a 22.5 and up the main jet slightly.

If I move the clip down on the bottom settings on the 56 needle it will be unrideable as I've already tried it on the middle setting.

Cheers
Mike
