'95 klr650 - highway manners

I adjusted my pilot jet yesterday when I did some carb work as I posted. I can't believe the difference in off idle response from just half turn further out. What do you think ,,,,,should I go another half? Is 21/2 turns out gonna be tooooooo much ? Tom B Living on the edge.

If you don't try it, you'll spend the rest of your life wondering how different things might have been. Mister_T Melbourne Australia

Thought I had posted a follow up, but now I can;t find it. I found two wheel weights on the front. Removed them, the headshake went away. Thanks for the tips guys!
