Here are some links for the carb mod...I assumed it was the Keihin CV carb.

Thanks. I have already been to both of these sites. I was just talking to a friend and he seems to think that I have some sort of internal leak in my carb as my mileage is really low. So it seems a full carb rebuild will be in order but i gotta say with the way it runs I have no complaints with th mileage I am getting.

I'm in the same range and it seems I should get way better but it is what it is. Didn't get a chance to put the 190 main in last night. Maybe today after work. I know part of it is the way that I ride. I can't keep my hand off the throttle. I also ordered a set of the stealth bear traps from DK for my highway pegs yet]sterday. They should be here by the end of the week. I'll reevaluate fuel mileage when this tank gets near empty. At least 3/4 of my mileage right now is freeway to and from work.
