Question on pilot jet

[Loc]

I am new to the Banshee life and have a couple questions. I have a 2004 LE that is stock. I am installing set of Bills Pipes and silencers. I read what the website says for jetting. My question is do I have to replace the pilot jet or can I just replace the main jets. Also what should I look at for an adjustment on the needle. I live at roughly 1400 feet.

Should be fine with the stock pilots, and the needles, leave them stock position. They should prolly be 3rd notch from top, blunt end.

ive never worked on a bike that didnt require a 27.5 pilot after putting on pipes. stock is 25. i think you will need to change the pilot. leave the needle alone.

dont get me wrong here. but im almost 100% sure that there are many dealers who sell aftermarket mods never reccomend new pilots, just tighteneing air screw abit claims that it does the trick.

 

for personal experience, i put on not only pipes, but K&N filters.. ( clamp ons) so ALOT more air... and i kept stock pilot just tightened the air screw 1/2 a turn and runs great..

 

so based on that criteria.. maybe if you tighten the air screw with only pipes/ silencer im sure you should be fine.

 

all this info is based on my personal experience.
