I'm in Sydney. And after you mention lecation, I do notice this guy lives in cornwall.
The only reason I'm sideing with 112's all round, is because I just checked my plugs, after about 700 k's on new plugs, and they came out tan/brown.

I have a photo of what I mean by the diaphragm not so much being fitted wrong way round or anything, but more of, poorly fitted.

I'm currently running a half system, stock air intake (possible high flow, I didnt fit it), Stock idle air, soft diaphragm springs and short velocity stacks.
Just to clarify, I'm not sideing with running rich, I was just saying that even if he was running 112's and it was rich, there would otherside effects, e.g. blowing smoke perhaps.

No offense taken, I was more afraid, you would take me the wrong way.

Ah your from down under then, that may affect jetting a bit im not sure but id get your bike on the dyno as checking the plugs doesnt always show the full story. Im not saying your bike is set up wrong but this is a subject thats been discussed for many years on this forum and if your bike starts from cold without choke then thats a sign your running rich. I spose it also depends how cold it gets over there in OZ, not very im guessing! Lucky git!!!

Lol Well it was 16 degrees today, not Warm enough for T-Shirt riding, but Quite pleasant in a Summer/All year jacket :grin:

I'm writing a post on replacing the carb diaphragm ssprings for NC35's which includes checking the diapraghms for leaks, and how to not fit them incorrectly.
Lol, all I can say, is a learnt well from my mistake.
