So, just had a vito's 240 kit and stroker crank installed, running a k&n, vf3 reeds, and have a fmf gold exhaust. Starting out with the vito's tech's recommendations, running 35 pilot, 360 main, middle clip. Its a real pain int the a&% to get started, (I've got the blister on the bottom of my foot to prove it) but once its started it actually runs fairly smooth and has pretty good throttle response. But as soon as i put it into gear and start to get a movin', it runs very flat or boggy if you will, even if the throttle is pinned, then just dies. Any suggestions on my next move would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
 
So i found out the problem was an over excited assembler, ha ha. When i had reconnected the stator wires, i crossed the headlight and ignition wire. Corrected the mistake and sure enough, fired up in 1 kick and off she went! So if anything, lesson learned on taking my time and double checking my work before it cost me more than just frustration...
