im looking for advise on using aftermarket carbs on my Lemans. What has been tried and what works. I currently went to the expense of putting on a set of mikuni flat slides that we sold to me as 40mm but it turned out that they ar 38s that have been bored out to 41.5mm. Now these carbs work great except the fuel mileage on the street is about 30 mpg. I thought they could be rejeted but when I took the bike in to a shop I use that has a air fuel analyzer the bike is very rich on small throttle openings but cannot be rejetted because when the carbs were bored they were bored out too much and cut into the slow speed orifices causing the carbs to pull too much fuel. On a race track this is not a problem but not good for the street. I can get replacement TM38mm pretty cheap but throttle pull is quite heavy. I’m looking for suggestions
Thanks
