Did the RB'd carb and head have a significant impact on your jetting, causing you to go significantly leaner?
Sorry for all of the questions, but I had to buy some jets and I wanted to make sure that I purchased a range of jets that would be suitable to my bike. I ended up purchasing a 38 and a 42 pilot, and a 142 and a 148 main. My bike currently runs very rich at both ends with the 45/155 combination.

It's good to have a good selection of jets

I'd just run some plug chops and see where you are at

I just go by the seat of my pants.

If I rode more up on the pipe I'd probably be better off richening the circuits up some, but my bike rarely gets on the pipe and I like it to run nice and clean down low

Yep.

Good stuff to watch. What kind of camera are you using? I'd like to do something like that where I ride, but my helmet is constantly getting hit by branches - is there some kind of guard that you can mount to protect the camera?

Dont you worry about riding any faster Mr Wibbens
I have raced MX and Harescrambles. And know know what I do know? I spend time on the computer. With all my injuries they have added up and I have used all my get out of jail get hurt cards . I just can not get hurt again to keep my out of work . I have had injuries that kept me out of work for over a year and put my family though Hell.
You just ride your beautiful trails and enjoy the time you have out there. And Ill watch your videos wishing I still could go riding
