Either way, whatever works :YEAH

). I think at first, people have the tendency to not bring the bike up quite as high since they aren't comfortable with balancing it yet, and as it starts to drop a bit, blip the throttle again. Basically keeping it up by throttling rather than actually balancing it. One they get more comfortable, they bring the bike up higher to the actual balance point, and can then use less throttle to keep it there, and in turn, have the throttle control to use less more smoothly and consistently versus chopping it.

I'm still a throttle jocket on the Fiddy...
Every once in a while, I get one just right, and it's smooth.. and people better get the f*ck outta my way, cause I ain't settin' it down. But it's mostly on/off with the gas and the brake right now. Gimme another month or two and I'll settle it down.
Not everybody is as good as Nags

Take the throttle cable back out and make sure the angled plane on the bore lines up with the idle screw on the carb.
