    topend misfiring would be a rich main jet. I am running the same setup on my R. You basically have to keep dropping main jet sizes until it revs out clean. Do plug chops to be sure.

    DO NOT send any thing to whats his face (dirt-face/crasher) here on the board. What a scum bag. He screwed (stole) money from me and screwed me on my ME360 and Hondaline 300R engine rebuilds.

    Throw it down to a 172 main and see if there is a difference. What oil ratio are you at? Also a 38mm carb will give you top end along with the paul turner pipe, do you have any port work what so ever, or any other types of motor mods that you have left out you could have 2 performance parts that arnt working good together. Last but not least are you running the correct spark plug for it, I know I fouled a plug one time and had to put a colder plug in it and it totally crapped out for my top-end, or you may want to try several different plugs and see if you cant get better results. Just a few things to consider......

    your air screw will have nothing to do with top end.your rich on the main drop to a 170-172.if your gonna jet go atleast 1 size at a time.thats two jets lower,would equal i size,the others are half sizes.it's breaking up at full throttle right?
