bit dark but ok. try leaning the needle one clip. might need to then go in 1/4 on air screw but you're damn close.

Yeah, I'd take that all day if it was running cleanly.  Would probably do the airscrew first for a while and then try the needle if I really needed more, both/either are pretty easy to do.

That's kinda how I'm looking at it. It's running great and hitting it's spots.  I think I'll hold steady until I dyno.

I replaced the CB front end, which was absolutely awful, with a TL1000r.  I'm sure there are a plethora of opinions against this swap, but it rides and handles incredibly well.  I can't believe I thought the last front end had potential.

I lost track, irk...did GSXR front end not work with the wheels? At any rate, I see no problemo with the TL's. Looks great and if it works, why not? Love that machine. Where are u in Ga? We need to meet up and ride so I can ogle this beast in person!! Great build!

Thanks for saying.  I'm in Augusta.  I would love to ride.  I have a buddy whose wife's family is in Chickamauga, so I'm up there riding a bunch too. 

I like the TL front end better to run the street bars.  I am saving the other front end for the next build which I'll run the clip ons with a vintage TZ fairing.  This being an LC conversion, I didn't want to cut up the fairing, and the changes cascaded from there
