Phazernut Posted July 14, 2011 Report Posted July 14, 2011 Well I've had mine now for 3 days and I'm in love all over again. The bike is an 08 with very little use. Its completely stock except for the FMF SSTs and silencers. The previous owner installed the pipes but didn't change the jets at all. Ive checked the plugs and they don't seem too bad. I run mostly at sea level or a few hundred feet above. Where should I start with it? I jetted my old RD350LC years ago but my memory is not so good. Quote
camatv Posted July 14, 2011 Report Posted July 14, 2011 260-280 main stock pilot, clip in middle to one richer position. should run good. try the 270's first. Quote
dirtydownunder Posted July 14, 2011 Report Posted July 14, 2011 fmf jetting is 260 main 30 pilot, stock needle on 3rd clip and 1.5 turns on the air screw. (remove snorkel on lid) ( jetting for sea level) i dont know why they run a big pilot, id try the stock pilot. (25) Quote
sleeper06 Posted July 14, 2011 Report Posted July 14, 2011 I have found sst to like 27.5 pilots,fatties like 30s,280 main with no lid 240-260 with lid at sea level Quote
Phazernut Posted July 14, 2011 Author Report Posted July 14, 2011 This may be a stupid question but are all Jets the same or do I need to buy them specifically for the bike. Pretty sure I know the answer but 15 years of 4-strokes has made me dumb. Quote
dirtydownunder Posted July 14, 2011 Report Posted July 14, 2011 you need mikuni carb jets, the model of carb you have is a vm-26. Quote

figuare9 Posted July 16, 2011 Report Posted July 16, 2011 My bike with the same pipes is running 300 main 32.5 pilot, middle clip at 1500 ft. It ran at that jetting and those pipes for years. It's a little higher then what's reccommended but it's what worked for me. Quote
camatv Posted July 16, 2011 Report Posted July 16, 2011 wow thats a big pilot! short hex mikuni jets.. Quote
