I know this has probably come up in previous posts but I seem to have developed a hesitation issue at or above 50 MPH.

To fix my chronic stock exhaust which kept cracking I installed a V&H SS2-R Exhaust and Re-Jetted the carb with the V&H Re-Jet Kit. I also added a K&N airfilter to replace the stock airfilter.

The instructions required me to replace the stock needle and add 3 "E" shaped washers as well as use a "165" sized mainjet.

After install the Blast sounded great and ran smooth up to around 50 MPH... it starts to hesitate as I apply more throttle, and it continues to hesitate/studder all the way up to wide open throttle.

I went back and even installed a size "175" mainjet and it still hesitates above 50 MPH.

Any ideas what could be causing the hesitation?

She will still accelerate to over 90 MPH but the hesitation is very uncomfortable and unsmooth... feels like she is not receiving a steady stream of fuel?

Appreciate any advice!
