  Newer to motorcycles. Rebuilding a 2007 Honda Shadow Aero 750 single carb(father/daughter project). Have new Carb. Came with pilot jet size 45. An 120 and 125 main jets. I live in Flagstaff, AZ, 7000 ft. Any tips on jet sizes as I start to tune this thing? smaller than 120? or adjust using fuel mixture screw, etc. Thanks

  Thanks. Going to watch this weekend. Need to find some jets. On your page I see larger ones, not smaller options.

  @Scot Raab stock jetting is very lean for these bikes for most people within a few k of sea level.  stock jetting did great for me all around lake tahoe going from 5k elevation to 8k.
