I have a friend whos r has ran like **** for sometime... Hes constantly asking me whats wrong with it. (won't clean out on top) Was pretty sure it was electrical. So after watching a several week struggle of swapping parts I offered to take it to my other friends dyno... So we changed around some components and wound up with a new coil and some jetting changes... Got it to clean out good on top. But I think whatever needle is in it, can't remember off hand is way off. It just doesn't have that low.. mid crisp feel I remember on my R's kind of blubbery but its on the leanest clip(best a/f we could get). We are going to take her back after we pick a few up to try... so whats the favorite needle to use. His bike is ported (halls performace) fmf fatty, 38mm pwk, boyseen rad valve. Thanks for the help

Let us know what your buddies CURRENT needle is!

Most popular is the DGH (good starting point)

Then go up or down from there.

I use a DGK
