I'll go back and do the bench sync again - went straight into vac sync after the manifold changes.

Hi everyone, it's been a while.
Had family visiting from overseas so been busy playing host and not playing with the bike at all!
Finally getting back to it over the last few weeks and I'm still stuck on the carb tuning at idle. I'm now at the point where I'm looking at further increasing the idle jet size to a #45 and see if that improves things.
Does anyone know where I can get them in the UK or EU? Have looked at US sites and it's usd$60 to ship!!!

FWIW when I bench synched my 400 I went for a small gap on the sliders I used an odd sized drill shaft it was 3/32" iirc.
I worked on the basis that I could speed the idle up easily by adjusting the one screw on the throttle link.
