broke Posted April 4, 2004 Report Posted April 4, 2004 I'm getting tired of paying the dealer $7.90 for each try. After five tries, it's time to order from some place cheaper. Where does everyone get there jets? broke Quote
Indubitably Posted April 5, 2004 Report Posted April 5, 2004 I've always got them from the hole in the wall shop down here and it cost me like $3 or somthin near there. Quote

Where does everyone get there jets? CarbParts.com is a great place to go. They are very knowledgeable, easy to work with and can get you anything. Quote
BdBanshee Posted April 5, 2004 Report Posted April 5, 2004 You can also get them, and any other part for your Keihin carb from Sudco. They are the importer for Keihin. Quote
FadedDreams Posted April 5, 2004 Report Posted April 5, 2004 I get mine aat the dealership,but they charge 4.95 for each jet.Dennis Kirk sells them in a set of 5 for 19.95. Quote
dirtbike killer Posted April 5, 2004 Report Posted April 5, 2004 See if they have a jet exchange program. Most places I go to have this, even the dealership. That way its free to get jets, after you buy the first few so you have something to exchange. Quote
BansheeJen Posted April 5, 2004 Report Posted April 5, 2004 I bought a 5 pack from my local dealer out of the Parts Unlimited catalog for about $15. Get's you a pretty good range of jets. Quote
Pjw350 Posted April 5, 2004 Report Posted April 5, 2004 just got a shipment of keihin jets today from dennis kirk. Hey Broke what carbs/jet sizes you runnin. Im runnin 28mm pwks and a friend of mine has some 35's. Quote
broke Posted April 5, 2004 Author Report Posted April 5, 2004 Thanks guys. I just ordered from Dennis Kirk last night. Pjw350, Right now I'm running 30's. I beleive they are clones but work great all the same. I've got a friend who is building a Cheetah right now with 35's, so I might give those a try also. I have been having some serious trouble getting them to not run lean. Started with 150's and worked my way up to 160, went out and bout 165, 170 and 175, plugs are still white, went out and got a 210 and it just barely bogs so I at least found a place where it went rich. What jet size are you running in the 28's? Later broke Quote
Pjw350 Posted April 6, 2004 Report Posted April 6, 2004 160 main and i think 55 pilot - im not 100% sure on that pilot size Im gonna drop down 1 or 2 sizes . Are you gonna be at fox valley on the 25th for megajam? Those cheetah motors are hard to hang with. Youll see. Quote
broke Posted April 6, 2004 Author Report Posted April 6, 2004 Yea, I ride with another guy that has one also. He usually gets me by about 2 bikes, but the difference would be greater with a longer run. I'm just happy to stay close to him with my bizzard 350. I think I would be pissed if I were him, that was a big dollar motor. My new pipes and carbs have been a little bitchy to tune, but I am hopeful. I will be there if I can ever get this thing tuned right, you going? I wish I knew why this thing wants such a big main. I haven't even messed with the pilot yet, idles pretty good and is real crisp down low. I might go out to Fox Valley this weekend to work out some of the bugs. Take it easy. broke Quote
