Hello Last year I booked a 7-night stay in the Luxor in Las Vegas with Ebookers.com. When I booked (by telephone) they gave me the option of upgrading my room to a Deluxe for an extra 100 per person, which I accepted. Upon arrival at the Luxor I discovered that all rooms were deluxe, so I had paid an extra 200 for nothing. Ebookers now deny the `Upgrade Telephone conversation` and tell me to get lost. As you can tell I am totally dissatisfied with this. I advise you not to use Ebookers.com and I hope that you will distribute this to as many people as possible, including book@... to spread my word. Thank you for reading this and im sorry to have taken up your time.

Maybe it's related to Ehookers.com a service many listers use while at the Luxor in Moab. Bogdan

Agreed. Most of the lists I'm on at Yahoo! got spammed by this same message. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@... ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.

My results so far, messing around with carbs on my KLR650. Unless otherwise noted, I have been using the stock exhaust and the stock airbox. 1- Stock carb with t-mod. Lean surges a little, decent power. 2- Stock carb, mixture screw turned out to 1.25 turns (stock was .75). Less lean surging. Dynoed at 36hp, normal. 3- Mikuni 38mm roundslide carb. came jetted really rich, 35mpg. Instant response, lots more power rolling on, but too rich for steady cruising. Typical of a racing carb. 4- Mikuni 38mm- leaned way out, mileage up to 45mpg. Instant response, overall power feels like stock. Dynoed at 33hp, but felt like more power because there was no lag when you opened the throttle. really clean, reliable 9I used this setup for the Sandy Lane enduro, 40 mi of 1st gear puttering in the woods, no fouling, no overheating). This is definitely the ideal offroad setup, except for the heavy throttle feel. I cut two coils out of the throttle valve return spring, but need to trim more. 5- Stock carb, mix screw 1 turn out, went up 1 on pilot (stock #40, installed #42). Drilled out slide vacuum port to .125", removed rubber snorkel from airbox. Better response than before, but felt crappy because I was used to the roundslide. 35mpg! Apparently the pilot jet is the culprit. Bike ran rich on woods trails, stumbled a bit after a while. Now I know why Dynojet doesn't change the pilot, and instead opens the mixture screw 3 turns- what is really needed is a custom pilot jet in between 40 and 42. 6- (tonight) Stock carb, stock pilot jet, mix screw out 1.5 turns. A little bit of lean surging, better response than before I drilled the slide, same power. mileage seems like it's back over 50mpg. Curious to see what 2 turns out does. 7- Next idea- either fit a KLX needle, or get a spare stock needle (anybody have a donor?) and reshape it to reduce the shoulder, so it has a more normal taper.
