After all the issues I had with my 2001 FE501e, mainly starting and also stalling issues, I decided to send my Dellorto carb to Dale.
Starting has become a lot easier now, although it still requires the proper technique, I now do it with the confidence that it will start up in about 5 kicks cold, choke or not.
When the bike is warm, it will restart with only one kick and a lot more easily than a 125 2-stroke.
The engine runs a lot smoother now and the power has become very manageable. With a 14T in the front, the bike has no issue climbing any regular hill.
Great power at every stages, and if I stall it, it really has to be my fault now.
Good investment, and a lot cheaper than putting a Keihin. With shipping and parts it ran a bit over $200, while upgrading to the FCR would cost between $500 and $700 just for the FCR itself (used or new).
