Thanks jake , i currently have n1ef , nedw, cek and cck with the cck in at the moment , i think my bike is running a bit hot with this needle as it there was coolent leaking from the overflow , but that may be to do with fitting the rekluse and trying to trials ride it , to my eyes the cek looks very lean but very progressive ,not sure about the cck as its in the bike at the moment , the nedw looks to be more linear than the n1ef , so im going to try the nedw for a bit today to see how that pans out, any thoughts on carb setup with that needle.
im off to wales in the morning so id like it to be right , any maintenance on the trail with a gas gas starts the ktm hyeenas with thier gas gas unreliability jokes

40 NEDW#3/2 175/172 main. Should have it zippin around no worries. Seeing as you have the 40 and 175 in there already I'd just start with clip 2 for a test ride. Move to clip 2 if it feels too rich. Then after your weekend decide if you want to drop the main.
Not sure on the root diameter of the CCK but if the bike idles high when you put the NEDW in don't freak out immediately thinking its lean. Simply try to back the idle down to a good level.

Oops.. Start with clip 3.. Then move to 2..
Can you still get the slide out with the tank off? Or is it a remove the whole carb every time deal on the 2012s??

That was much better , just a little boggy right off idle though , then hold on to your hat baby
Just fine tune with the pilot. Try going richer, and leaner and get a feel for what gives the best off idle response. Hangin to see the vids! Cheers

Tuned the pilot to 1.5 out and still have this bogging around 1/8 throttle , great but long day out , set off at 5 am and just before midnight when I get home

Sounds like a big day mate! Hangin to see the vids. Enjoyed your last lot immensely. 1/8th throttle is how I would describe the needle diameter having the biggest effect. If its a lean bog Ie crack the throttle and it feels like it misses or wants to stall then you'll either need to go up a diameter, or a larger pilot. If its the other where its burbling and 4 stroking consider going to the NEDJ. A clip position change will have some effect around here too but more so at 1/4 throttle and will continue through more of the range.

Hahah! Diggsy diggin the gasser turnout. Look at all those 2012s. Not so sure about the man lovin! Haha! I'm sure I've got a video of 2 blokes pumping up a tyre somewhere. Looks pretty shady from the angle I was standing.
