finicky jetting?

[The Blaze]

around here i'll be riding the same elevation the whole time, so thats not a problem, i was just wondering how often you have to re jet for temperature changes.

 

like every 10C, 20C? less?

 

please use C if at all possible.

 

thanks :beer:

don't have a clue about C. depends on how drastic of a change. in texas, we have (forgive me) 100* F in the summer and 50* in the winter. To me, that would equate to a main jet or maybe two depending but I don't really ride when it's colder than that. Pilot probably won't need changing, maybe an air screw adjustment. The needle may or may not need a clip change. You can probably get by w/o touching anything but the main a size.

ok thanks for the reply.

 

anyone else?

Good advice. About that "C', I think he means he wants the temperature in metric units. Doesn't he remember how easy it is to convert? "C" degrees=5/9(F degrees-32)

& "F" degrees=9/5(C degrees + 32)

im not sure about c but i dont rejet for 20 or 30 degreas of tempture if its cold i aint riding anyway. 65 to 100 maybe

25 to 30 degrees F requires a main jet change normally....

I will notice the difference in my bike after about a 15F degree change. I have a chart made that tells me what i ran last time is was this temp, so I have a baseline to tune from. It's weird how much we oppose anything metric here. We use it alot a work, so I have just become used to it, but still won't even admit it exists outside of work.
