[shawn kloker]

Has anyone else ever had a needle jet(nozzle) come loose?

I thought you were referring to pilot jet - I gapped it

Not really once you learn them.There are a few reasons,mileage(15 mpg) and bog. I like to ride my max the same way I rode my mototcross bikes.I shift a lot.Rolling the throttle doesn't fit into that scheme of things.The bog at the drag strip blows big time!
I also want to continue working on racking my R1 carbs something like the stock carbs,maybe even open vboost like mine now.

Thats if you can get it started. When the #4 did it on mine I couldn't figure out for a while why it wouldn't start.

Maybe because I am running vboost eliminator tubes?
It definately started,idled and reved fine in nuetral.Didn't run right on the road,felt like only 3 cylinders.Only my number 1 plug was black too not 1&2?It really kinda pissed me off that I had to pull the carbs again and unrack them just to put the nozzle screw back in.But then again I was glad to have spotted the problem.

I know the feeling

It's even harder to spot a jet that has fallen out!

Luckily I wasn't happy with the Dynojets and wanted to try a few Mikuni Jets (cheers Sean Morley :biglaugh
