Snopczynski Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 Im putting a bike together with the following. Stock carbs with pod filters cpi inframe small bores. PD coolhead with 20cc domes advance timing +4 degrees Lightened flywheel Boyesen pro series reeds on stock cages Elevation 0-700 feet riding, sand dunes, and pavement. I was thinking of starting at about 310 mains. Anyone have a better suggestion for where to start, what needle clip position to use, and pilot jet/ air screw settings? I usually mess with TM's and pwk's, so I am sure there are a few on here that will have a better idea of where this thing needs to be. Quote
wacko2000 Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 I ran that setup with T5's and a airbox. I was perfect at 310, I think you will need to be richer. Im no jetting expert but i would say 330 27.5 pilot I have cpi's now and they seem to like a bigger pilot than the T5's good luck Quote
shee4speed Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 I was running stock carbs,pods, with Shearers.Dune port though. I had 360 mains in them.I prob.could have ran 340's.It was pretty rich. Quote
Titan up Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 I think 310 mains is a little small. My old set up with unported stock cylinders with ALL the bolt on's, pods and t-6's, I was at 340 mains and 4th clip down from top. 300-1200 elev. Quote
ToomeySheeLE Posted March 17, 2009 Report Posted March 17, 2009 I think you'll end up at 310's with the pods.. I was running an airbox with the exact setup and was in the 290 range.. still plenty safe... I was running the longer toomey needles, middle clip, and 27.5 pilot. Quote
firebanshee Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 I would start at 340s but i think you will end up at 330s, needle in the middle and 27.5 pilot. Quote
Frogger Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 I'd go would go with what firebanshee said. I ran mine at 300 with the same bolt on's at 5000ft. Quote
Wildcardracing Posted March 19, 2009 Report Posted March 19, 2009 330-340 mains, 27.5 pilot , needle on middle clip would be a good place to start. 310's will be way lean, you may end up as low as 320's depending on temp and humidity. Quote
