But to me it sounds like you can't trust your drilled jet. Get a real 95 and 100 main jet and you'll probably be better off. Then after experimenting with each one see how it behaves at partial throttle.

Is this a stock size carb or an oversize? Because one thing is for sure going with an oversize carb can create a situation like you have, a very difficult to tune midrange. When going oversize carbs you end up with basically an on/off switch instead of a throttle.
Thanks....carb is stock 19mm standard Minarelli QJ type. never had a problem jetting those nit picky 2T's in my life...this one wants to challenge me. I have to agree..getting a 'real' #95 and #100 will take away some of the probs..for is the drilled #100 made with a 1mm drill..really 100?...no way of finding out...so new 'real' jets it is.
@terrilee....you may not want me...I am fat n ugly...ewww...you would need about 20 of these before you would even talk to me.....
