i didn't mean the jets themselves. more the carb body internals where the jets fit into

if you get desperate , you can use these guys http://www.carmoelectronics.co.uk/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=497_514_2129_2915

maybe your TCI has gone. have you ensured the earths are clean from the battery and to the engine. Switching on and off is the work of a simple contact set, that's why I'm looking at the TCI having issues. If you look on the TCI there is a TID number, try and borrow one of the same type to see if its that good look with the build
-
are the carbs clean inside, ie all the small jet holes unclogged?
-
lube your cable if its not a slinky coated one, or just replace it. Readjust the cable and check the run is not near an exhaust pipe where it will burn
-
it also depends on the handle bar shape. American bars tend to have higher, curvier bars so there are shaped to meet those curves. TBH so long a the bore size is the same, you should be ok. try xs650 stuff off mikes XS

I never forget undoing a cam cover bolt on the FZ using a ratchet ring spanner. going great till it hit the frame with no where else to go. had to cut the spanner with an angle grinder. I feel your pain
-
I'm suprised its finicky then. I'd still check timing, fuel height, valve clearance . before you start on different jets. BTW fuelling the top end still applies, get that right (over 3k) there' usually a transition around there from pilot
-
check timing if its adjustable first. check 2 stroke oil as too much weakens the mix you need a jet kit, allens or NRP, you need to ensure mains set first for WOT, do plug chops to check mix. I assume the carb is set up and cleaned throughout?

the xsr looks great
-
I would check fowlers parts fiche and see it its labelled there

on the carpe-tdm site, one really tall guy has slightly modified his controls and this helped http://www.carpe-tdm.net/ipb/index.php?showtopic=37015&hl=tall#entry376858

my tdm850 is tall. I have a Hagon shock on though which does raise it a bit. have to lean the bike slightly to put foot down.

usually an earth fault. strip and clean

Here's a fun one. Was I sold a restricted bike as "full power"?

I'm sure they didn't do it on purpose then. Sounds like a decent shop -

hard luggage for me too, when I went to spain etc, just unhook them at destination and walk in like a suitcase. they are safer like Cynic says so brew stops are less fraught . Say hello on http://www.carpe-tdm.net/ipb/index.php loads of info for you there too
