Kyle:

Thanks, how did you search old messages?  I recall a message from
Dennis last year when I first cleaned the carbs and I thought he
indicated the slow jet being 0.0011. I remember sanding a leader wire
to clean it.  Several web sites sell jets for Keihin carbs, but the
size range is 35-80.  How do you translate the size number to the bore
diameter?
