"one stroke for producing power and three for wearing the engine out." i love that. thats awesome.
b4himdude:
pretty cool/.... went down to the bike shop and they just gave me the 55 pilot for notta. luckily i brought along the one i took out last night.there are two different styles of thread placements on the pilot jets. now time to go see.
b4himdude:
alright guys i put the 55 pilot in the carb and guess how right you are. im sure you already expected that. no anyway i tried the 58 pilot and it WAS still seemingly needing to quit hacking up phlegm. so now the 55 still seems as though she might be getting over the congestion pretty well but not quite. theres still a bit of a itchy throat (so to speak) so my question is if i have the 1 1/2 turns out on the air screw and it idles super once warmed up should i even tinker with the adjustments or go one leaner on the pilot.or should i just deal with the slight congestion and watch the condition of the plug for a few rides? and if leaner by one is the decision then what is one leaner from a 55? id first guess a 54 but i dont know the numbering system and how they number em.a 53? anyway you guys are great. i have some good stories to add to the forums when i have a chance to find em. started at 8 yrs old on a 1980 rm60. talk later

the next Pilot down is a 52...I had a feeling you would probably end up at a 52, so yes, pull the 55, and try a 52.
