Does anyone know the stock jet size.

Also I asked this in another post but im having trouble with my idle. I installed new toomey pipes and 290 mains checked my plugs 3 times and perfect. I returned home installed a adjustable timing plate, fired it up today and will now not idle and fouling out the right side plug..Anyone have any input?? Thanks

Stock is 200 I believe, but sometimes dealers will rejet for elevation change. As for the fouling plugs have you checked to see if that side is getting a good spark? If not it could be your CDI, or possibly something wrong with the timing plate.

210 for 87 to 89 shee. 200 from 90 to newer....

However, as said, a local dealer can change that based on extreme temps or altitude...

 

If all you did was put a timing plate on, one of two things happened.

 

The flywheel key didn't seat correctly, and the flywheel to crank is off....or, the pickup air gap to flywheel is too big.

 

I like mine at .015 or so....

 

The only way something could be wrong with the timing plate is if the ears broke off, other than that it's a static piece of hardware with no stress on it or moving parts.

I got the bike to run properly..What it was, no clue..I took the carbs apart today and cleaned everything up and blew it all out now runs perfectly. I assume something got in their or the floats may have been sticking...Thanks for all the input.

Glad to see you got it figured out. A lot of people get intimidated by working on carbs, they're really not that difficult once you understand them....and learn how and when to clean 'em....

 

 

Ride on!!
