coloradododge Posted July 6, 2015 Report Posted July 6, 2015 Sorry . I'm probably doing this wrong. Done a lot of searching on site but first time posting. If anyone could help steer me in right direction I'd really appreciate it. Here is my situation. Bought bike used it had stock jets and fmf pipes. Fmf recommends 260's but bike runs excellent with 200's verified with several plug chops (oil coated plugs seemed very rich) from 4000 to 6000 feet. It was spitting oil out of the exhaust motor ran cool never bogged one bit. Had a trip at 8400 feet so I went from 25's to 30's on the pilots (shop recommended) and from 200 to 190 on the mains. (Added reeds removed snorkel went from stock filter to twin air at the same time. Bike ran lean and pretty hot bogged a couple times in 6th. Plugs really white hardly any color. Now I'm back at 6000 feet put 200's back in. Plugs look by the book perfect now no oil coming out of exhaust and a little oil on plugs. Bike is running hotter than it was before. Going back to 8400 feet should I leave the 200's in and see what happens? Sorry for the novel but if anyone has any input I'd really appreciate it. None of this makes sense I should have been rich when I went up in elevation Quote
