Hi Grif
The bike does have an aftermarket exhaust and as part of that operation extra holes were cut into the airbox. I don't know if the jet is standard or not, it's size 45. I know I shouldn't have to have had the wire in there but it got me out of a tight spot. I don't know what an EPA blanking plug is...I'll look into it.  and there is no adjustable fuel screw. I believe I can get one but it'll have to wait until Istanbul now. I'm planning on changing tires there, fixing headlights and getting a proper mechanic to look at the carby if it's still not running right after I remove the wire.
Question though...if the bike appears to be running well when I'm under 2000m, or under 1000m...should I remove the wire? Can running lean (if it seems to be running ok from my perspective) damage the engine?
