The stock size is 0-6 and I see all sorts of sizes but I dont which way to go. My 1/3 throttle is still very lean and I've raised the needles all the way. Please help.. pods and 4 into 1.

Coltrain, not an expert here either, but I am not entirely sure you can remove the needle jet itself. After looking at the diagram you posted, our needles are the same, and yes the needle JET is different. You may try increasing the size of your main jet, but im not sure HOW you can get the needle jet out, if at all, and Ive NEVER seen them available for replacements.
EDIT: Heh, i just figured it out...lol. Never mind. But I still have never seen needle jets being available aftermarket. Where are you seeing these? -
You can bang em out of there. The needle jet is what the main jets screw into. They definitely come out of there because I have cleaned them. They are listed on the vm carb rebuild on basscliff's website. Main jet and needle jet. I recommend takin em out to clean em :-D
Me want richer needle jet please.
Look something like this

Bingo! This makes sense because you run on the 4th clip! Now I too wanna run on the 4th clip!
Hey so what about those pilot jet settings? Thats kinda weird eh? Your 17.5's are rich? Didn't that diagram show a 22.5 pilot for the 1st batch of engines and then 27.5 pilots for the next batch or something?
Did you confirm with your engine #?Comment

No i didnt match numbers. The carbs on my bike are SURELY off a 77 motor, but the motor is not. The motor that i put in the bike is not the original, but one i rebuilt. Now, as far as the different pilot jet sizes, I am not sure exactly why they are different. The only thing that i can think of is that after 77, the GSs were sent from the factory with a purposely LEAN setting.Originally posted by coltrain View PostComment
