he wants to know the comparsion between the n and m needle in respect to full lean on one and full rich on the other.....my advice would be to map both needles....you can work it out that way
Twosmokerfan:
Yes ylwgtr, that is the answer i am looking for.
Well, I tried the N82n on the bottom clip (a short video link on the video post) and it worked well. Better than the m needle. Ran cleaner and pulled clean from down low. Tried it then on the middle clip (leaning it off) and I felt it might have been too lean. Went second clip from the bottom. I have concluded that the n is leaner than the m and the bike is running very nicely now. It idles no problems and doesn't load up in the slow stuff. Only a slight puff of smoke when cracked from idle and the throttle then closed. I am more than happy now.
Final settings at this stage:
P 48
Screw 1.5 out
Needle n82n on second clip from bottom
Main 165.

stujordan:
For the hardcore...
52 pilot 2.5 turns
150 main
N82R needle in 1st position (leanest)

...not that im advising anyone to do this...
My pig will get along...my life has flashed before my eyes soooo many times ;)
