 I'm no expert, and I jet by the seat of my pants. And sometimes my butt just isnt that acurate, but on my bike I did not notice any mixture difference. I did notice the spacer seems to move the power to a  lower rpm.
  I am hoping this will get lots of posts, because I could use some education from others.

When I installed mine the only jetting change I made was to readjust the air screw to peak rpm.  I didn't change pilot or main jet.
