Any benefit from using Dynojet needles?

I rode with a guy on a GS 750 with 16 valve 1100 engine, not a stock engine, can't remember exactly what it had. Bigger displacement, Bandit carbs or something. Fast. He got a true 50 mpg that day, we were not riding all that slowly most of the time. I am a stickler for getting things tuned as perfectly as I can.

Me too, which is why it bugs me so much. I get mid-40's on my 750 without even trying, and that's even with it tuned rich at idle so it'll start more easily.

The 1150 is really confounding me. My last ditch effort will be a final carb synching after the last intake leak I found. After that, I'm going to just get drunk whenever I think about it. Should kill about the same amount of brain cells.

I have read on here (I think) that the stage one is a benefit to a stock or stock with K&N filter in the box.

This due to the taper on the needle?

Are the needles the same for the different stage kits?
I guess I don't even know which stage needles I have.

No, same needles.

No, same needles.

Yeah, checking the pieces I pulled from the carbs against the parts list online from DynoJet, I've got everything that comes in the kit, except the jets for the stage 1. He must've installed the stage 3 and either lost or not given me the stage 1 jets with the bike. Only one needle comes in the kit.

If anyone is interested, I have the original design FactoryPro needles for the 1100 & 1150 carbs. Brand new, 60 bucks a set, shipped to you. Ray.

They are too small for you anyway.
