260 main jets

[downNdirty]

whats shaking everyone? I have a question about main jets. I was just told that all I need is 260 main jets for my shee. My motor is stoke so are my carbs. I'm putting on a fmf fatty full exhaust and going with a prodesign foam filter.

Is that true that all I need is the 260 main jets?

Need to know your elevation ..... i would start around 300, 260 will most likely be lean

sea level. maybe once in awhile i'll go up into the mountains in Pa. Just not sure how high the elevation is in the mountains in Pa.

if you still run the airbox lid then 260's are perfect, im also see level and i ran 7 years on fattys and a filter before i rebuilt her, when you go up in elevation youll run richer than at see level so youll be safe when you run there

once you pipe it and remove the lid you need to be running 300 mains 27.5 pilots needle 3rd or 4th clip air screw 2 turns out

i will be running the stock airbox with lid with an aftermarket filter. Using the lid because i tend to run throw puddles and mud holes whenever i find one.

hopefully next week i will be putting the exhaust on getting the filter and having the shop mess with the carbs. i will not mess with them. i know me i will end up not getting it right and start to get frustrated and cursing and throwing tools. i much rather just pay someone its so much easier.

 

 

thanks for the replys

everyone enjoy there weekend be safe and have fun

My elevation is 7 feet above sea level. I had a stock bike with fatty pipes and toomey intake. I ran 280's (what it had when I got the bike) and it was WAY too rich. I switched to 260's and it is still rich. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY BUYING 300 JETS. I don't want to badmouth anyone buy if you don't actually KNOW the answer you shouldn't spread your speculative "information" here.
