REFLOYD Posted March 21, 2007 Author Report Posted March 21, 2007 need advice on jetting. I have a stock airbox with lid, and DG pipes. What is the best. oh Stock carbs. Does a 200 main and stock pilot sound right? I am located at sea level here in Albany, GA Quote
gregbowler Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 what elevation and temps? Reguardless 200 is small for a bike with aftermarket pipes. Quote
REFLOYD Posted March 22, 2007 Author Report Posted March 22, 2007 what elevation and temps? Reguardless 200 is small for a bike with aftermarket pipes. I guess I am really close to sea level and the temps are in the mid to high 70's. I am thinking that the jets are too small but I do not know and need help. I have not done a plug chop yet because it is not in the frame and I am missing some parts still. Thanks In advance, Robert Quote
dajogejr Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 260s should be safe, do a plug chop from there. Quote
REFLOYD Posted March 23, 2007 Author Report Posted March 23, 2007 260s should be safe, do a plug chop from there. another quick question. What would be best to start with with a K&N with no lid on the airbox? Quote
dajogejr Posted March 23, 2007 Report Posted March 23, 2007 another quick question. What would be best to start with with a K&N with no lid on the airbox? 280 or 290...same bike...same mods. Quote
REFLOYD Posted March 24, 2007 Author Report Posted March 24, 2007 280 or 290...same bike...same mods. Is it better for me to buy a jet kit since these carbs are completely stock or just the jets? and if I get the jets do I also need to change the pilot jets and the needle? Thanks for the help. (yes i am new to this whole thing) Thanks, Robert Quote

Thanks for the help. (yes i am new to this whole thing) Thanks, Robert Don't waste you money on a "kit". Stock needles and pilot jets should be fine with your mods. Main jets are cheap. Buy two of each from 280 up to 320 and play with it till you get it right. Quote
baddsheee Posted March 24, 2007 Report Posted March 24, 2007 I think jet kits are a waste of money. I think you can get them individually for like $2-4 depending where you are located. Quote
