Looking for a jetting starting point with a 32mm

Can not help on that one but curious if the motor has any port work done on it because a 32mm is very big for a piston port Sachs 125 motor. The original porting had no bridges to be able to add much size and no booster ports so I never ran one bigger than 30mm and that one had been dremeled to the point that it went through rings pretty quickly. That is a lot of flow. also post later how it works out if you do not mind. Thanks!

Actually a fellow member has the bike, and I have the carb. I appreciate your input, hope all is well.....

I run a 32mm on the Cheney Sachs and it scoots much faster than my ability. The recently completed Berkshire came with a 32mm spigot mount that slips right on like a Bing but it hasn't been completely sorted (leaky gas tank and sticky gas metering needle).
Back to the Cheney... I thought that I had scanned the clipping but it looks like the Carb, adapter mount, and slide were all part of a hop up kit. The slide has been altered with the angle portion larger the what the catalog/marking indicate.

What size Jet Dale? Or ballpark even, just something to start with?
I pulled this up using the search function. The jetting for the Cheney won't help too much since the needle (unavailable) and slide (modified) are unique.
Originally Ernie Page's work?

James / Heath,
I had these written down as a jumping off point.
169N8-Needle Jet
5F21 Needle (Clip on 2nd slot from top)
40 - Pilot Jet
155 - Main
2.5 Slide
May be a little rich, but better rich than lean.
Thanks,
Kevin
