Why shim the carb needles you ask? Well it helps fatten up the fuel mixture around the 4-5000 rpm area where the SV is known to have a power dip. This simple procedure makes your stock SV ride better and gain a bit more punch in the mid range. If you have a slip on system it is even more important to do.
This was the info i saw regarding it.

I might try it and see what it does. If i was getting a rich mixture, putting in a K&N should lean it out a bit
