I picked up some used FMF gold series pipes

[joeyp]

They have some surface rust on them, and i cleaned them with steal wool and they look good now. I paid 100.00 dollars for them is that a good or a bad deal? Also what jets should i run in the carbs for them?

go to search above and punch in jetting.

To get the rust off use an S.O.S pad. And for the jetting check BenBB's jetting faq

280's come with the pipe new.That could be a good starting point if you have a stock machine with no other mods even air filter/box mods.

Whats your elevation? what temps do you plan on riding in? All these come into factor. I have my bike jetted for summer 60-75 degrees. My elevation is around 1500 to 2000 feet. I have the Fattys, K&N, Radvalves. (Advanced timing you may need to richen your main) I have a 260 main, i think the pilot is 1 size larger than the stock 27.5 one, my needle is moved to the 4th position, and turn my air screw about 2 turns out.

with FMF pipes and K&N filter no air box lid (only mods). sea level. I ran a 320 main, stock pilot and needle raise one clip (lower c-clip) Ran solid for some time, but slightly rich. I would have switched to a 310 main and called it a day. You "might" need to increase pilot jet one size.

 

Good deal on them, did they come with the O-rings where mount to the motor?. I paid like 500 something for mine new.
