man this thing has my number ...

finally figured i don't have any jets in the range i need, which is going to land somewhere in the 110-115 area. Also need to get some pilot jets for it (just cannot get the idle and needle dialed in correctly and a needle valve and seat.

All told, it's going to eat up another $60 or so, half the price of a new flat slide that will in turn need pilot and main jetting done ....

I'm at that point where i just can't make up my mind ..save money and toss more new parts at the old carb, or buy a new carb, spend more $s on it and run it for a season then sell the used "new" carb off when the time comes.

I figure i'm going to push the 250 for one more year in it (going to save any dollars I can scrape together for shocks by spring) before converting up to something in the 400-450 cc range.

What would you do????
