SF2 main jet PHF 36

I know it defies logic but cannot argue with the Dyno. Was able to get sniffer probe forward of the balance box  Exhaust, filter and all the checks I have done are documented in this post.
Wolfgang remembers going down to 128s on a US bike set up like mine.
I known can timing is good and bike is rich. Also Everytime I go up in jet size it runs like shit an vibrates my fillings out. With 150's I could not get more than 80mph or 26mies per US gallon.
140 was about 85moh and 28 job
130 about 90mph and 30mpg
The lower I go the smoother, faster and better consumption I get. Just wanted the Dyno to confirm the theory.
Now I have a pocket full of Jets, I may go back to the Dyno and see if he will let me play. Is a Harley shop so refused to do anything other than run it at the time. They liked the color and we're intrigued by the Laverda oddity so may feel inclined to let me wrench
 
My dyno bloke Rob is the same. He's a Japanese bike specialist and doesn't like working on these old Italian tractors. He calls my bikes "fucking Lavenders" and reckons they should be lavender coloured.

Fortunately he's pretty accommodating when it comes to me working on my bike in his shop, so I do the jet changes myself and he does the dyno runs. He even lets me use his tools.  Some workshop operators are a but gun-shy about liability if someone hurts themselves in their shop, but Rob lives in the real world.

Actually, Rob had to grudgingly work on an Italian bike when his wife bought a Ducati Monster  :D
