Did you do it yourself or did you get a trained mechanic to do it?
because either way, I'm sure it's not the mods being defective. It's probably a case of " somebody didn't put it back together right"

Went back that afternoon, took it all the way apart again and redid it. Piece by piece. Runs fine now. Must have had a Air leak around the spacer or what not...

spacer between barrel and reeds moves the reeds back, gives you more midrange, and supposedly makes the reeds last longer.
spacer between the reeds and the carb lengthens the intake tract on the high end and is supposed to increase your top end performance.
Now i have heard this from several ppl who would know, tho i never tried it myself. wish i had that kind of tinker time.
just sumthin you should consider, especially if you have a pipe on it. can make a big diff, since most pipes for 200cc rigs are tuned for wide open..
