And on that note... I'd like to thank everyone here... particularly the gurus (you know who you are) for sharing the knowledge to get my 750 perfect (for me:-)

Now that its' running good- ride it and don't try to "improve" anything.

There have been several threads lately where someone has written: it was runnning great then I <insert random carb setting change> and now it won't idle, rev etc.

Ride and enjoy and don't fiddle.
