Turns out the bike has been jetted, but not with a K and N jet. It is the
Keihin jet number 152. The idle mixture screw has been drilled out. Having
been happy with the performance thus far, I left it alone. When I was
installing the Supertrapp pipe getting the disc in place was a pain in the
arse. My first thought was to install six disc, but one of the short screw
would not make contact in the hole, hate when that happens. Ended up
stripping the end of the screw. So I went with the maximum number of disc,
I think 12 and the long screws. Will rethread the stripped screw tommorrow
in case the pipe is too loud.

The vaccum port had not been drilled, but I thought about drilling it. Not
sure what would happen without upgrading the spring as well. What do you
think?
