Time will tell. I know Alantf hasn't had the chance to yell at some one lately.

I don't feel confident doing this myself, can I just go to a mechanic and ask him to " shim my needle"? Or is it a little bit more tricky than that?
I'm asking because I don't get the whole stage 1/stage 2 etc. Thank you

Leave the stage 1 and stage 2 stuff alone. There is not a factory made jet kit for our bike.

You don't have to do any of these carb adjustments if your bike is running fine. If it currently fits your needs, just ride and enjoy it

All of these threads on power increases and modifications and stuff are only there are guides for others if/when they decide they want to tackle something. It doesn't mean you HAVE to do this stuff

Is there any advantage into adding a better air filter than the stock one if there is no other modification done to the bike? something like this http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001GMAJQG/...=INSHJTWKB0L9T

If it is cheaper than a Suzuki air filter then go for it. Hi-Flo makes a good product.
You can also use their HF-136 oil filter on the GZ. I know it is cheaper than a Suzuki oil filter and is identical.
