John,
I have v9 needles and I may want to try v5 as my bike runs a bit too rich as
well. Where did you get your v5 needles?? Thanks,Bob

Are you running a little rich now on the low end??? They also came in the V7 sport. I found on a web site the measurements of the tapers between the two. Bottom line they let more fuel pass at a lower throttle opening. The V9 needle applications also came with the #40 throttle slides vs the #60 with the V5 needles. I found them too rich for my Ambo which is a real lean burning engine. I went back to the V5 needle and run a #52 idle jet in one side and a #60 in the other with the needle in the high clip.
