Re: 68 CL175 Project Vicarious - tuning woes.......
There's also no cafe's in my town! 8)
I'm actually waiting on some new pilots in the mail. The 17.5's are a little lean, and the 22.5's are too rich. My needle is still in the 2nd notch from the bottom while my mains are at 140. I tried the 145's and it bogged down.....but if I can get my hands on some bigger air filters I'll try them again.

I had a post about my carb flanges asking about shorter / longer intakes. PJ and Boingk pointed out that longer intakes bring the power band down to a useable level.
In another thread (tuning for modded intake and exhaust by Boingk) - PJ pointed out again that the intake should be at least 9.5" (something like that).

Well guys, the bike will be coming to an end within the next couple months. Being that I've bought another motorcycle, the poor little Honda has to go.
We've had some good times and some bad times, but this is definitely a bike that i will remember for a LONG time. The frame, engine, and exhaust will be sold along with the title to a local DTT member. Pretty much everything else will be parted out or held onto. And when that day comes, expect the "selling" section to be packed with good small Honda parts!
But in the meantime, I'm still gonna ride the hell out of it!
