A quick update. After sending an email complaint to Top End it was forwarded to Red Line. Bud from Top End contacted me and was very helpful. For whatever reason it seems that this "brand new" set up had a few issues. All the floats were not set. 5 mm closed, 30 drop down. All the mixture screws had pitting. And one of the idle jets was in two pieces. I used 2000 paper to sand out the pits and reinstalled, set the floats at 14.5 and 22.5 and reinstalled. Started the engine and went through the process of readjusting all of the mixture screws. This time all had some effect on the engine's idle. Took it out for a cruise over the weekend and YES, finally it ran pretty good. The best yet. Go up and down thru the gears with no problem. Occasionally I do get a couple of pops when I slow down quickly form the passenger side pipe. Sent a follow up email to both TE and RL but have yet to hear from both.
