      TSCC engine bikes, which uses different carbs entirely, should have their floats set at 22mm.

        I was doing shorthand - it's 24mm +/- 1mm and 26mm +/- 1mm.

            Clymer is pretty clumsy. My favorite is the engine removal guide.

            1. Remove foot brake and right peg.

            2. Remove shifter and left peg.

            3. Remove sprocket cover.

            4. To remove sprocket nut, put bike in gear and apply rear brake while turning sprocket nut . . .

            Heeeeyy!

              The only mod that should be set to 26mm is the 77 "B" model and only if it has the ORIGINAL B model carbs on it. They were slightly different than the 78-79 models (needles aren't spring loaded, brass floats, different mains and needles)

                and what if your "B" model has replacement spring loaded needles and foam floats?

                  Hold on a second....

                  My carbs DO NOT have spring loaded needles, and the slide walls are about double thick as the ones with the spring loaded needles.

                  The floats are black plastic.

                  I DO have a set of slides, that have super THIN THIN THIN needles, which are spring loaded, and has very thin-walled slides.

                  I'm going to have to look at my engine Vin and see what it's supposed to have with it... The needles in there currently are SUPER fat, chunky needles, just a clip (no spring, or plate, or plastic shims).
