Where did you end up on your carb settings?  Needles, mains, etc.?

Mains are at 105. Everything else is back to stock settings in regard to needles, slow, however I am at 1.5 turns. I think thats what I ended at. I actually rode this yesterday as my brother was in town with it. The bike idles and runs great. I am more impressed with how smooth I have the bike running at idle. The idle will sit and purrrrrrrr at just under 1k.

 I think I'm going to try 110's and everything else stock (adjust mixture screws as needed) with my 592cc build. I'm finding out that, barring pods, you really don't need crazy jetting changes, even with some performance mods.
 I figure a little rich won't hurt and I'll go down from there if I need to.
