smallie 135 kit, carb setup??? any advice???

[paulski]

polini 135 on a vep 90, 19mm standard carb,polini pipe, what pilot jet do these use, got a 55 in it but it bogs down on gear change after a little blast in 2nd, 3rd, then back to second and open the throttle and bluuuurrhh,nothing. pull choke out and it pulls away instantly but obviously way to rich . got standard air filter gauze type , wot do we reckon peeps??? surely if it is a fuel tap flow problem the choke trick woud not work right!! so must be carburation, it ticks over nice and starts instantly, even with the standard 45 pilot, so i think 55 is over kill and should not be neccessary, doesnt appear to have any airleak symptoms. any ideas appreciated thanks

the 45 should be ok with that and some adjusting of the mixture screw, what main jet have you got in it ? you wanna be around 90 without filter

cheers fella ive already upped the main to 88 from 74 and put the 45 pilot back in,shortened the fuel pipe from tank and gave the carb orrifices a good blow out and its sweet as a nut, you was on the money with the main jet matey but 88 was the biggest i had so will do til i get a bigger and try it, cheers
