I decided to up the main jets on my fast street 1500/DGV.  Sure enough it 
gained power on top, smoothness everywhere, and some resistance to heating up 
under a load.  All in all a huge win and the motor runs great now, for 23 
dollars.  but that's not the really good news.  The really good news is that 
when i 
took the air cleaner off to do this one of the four screws holding the plate 
onto the carb was vibrated loose,   TWO THREADS FROM GOING IN THE CARB!  I 
probably would have gotten the jackpot on the very next ride.
Thank you whoever was watching out for me.
PS if anyone has a cammed/header/DGV 1500 with slightly increased compression 
and wants my jetting specs let me know I'll check how it all came out and 
post them.
