Put 52 or 50 pilots in. Try adjusting the air screws...start at 1/2 turn out from the lightly seated position. With the bike warmed up of course.

 

If you get to 2.5 turns out...you need a smaller pilot. Less than .5 turns out, larger pilot.

remember to wait 20 to 30 seconds once you make the adjustment on the air screw for it to take "effect" on your bike...

 

You might have to lean the needle one clip first (towards the blunt end with the clip) if it is still boggy with smaller pilots and adjusting the air screws.

 

How much compression do you have?

 

Lastly...if the jetting is fine, your porter might have gotten too aggressive and given you more of a drag port than a dune port....

Here's how to tune your air screws.

 

Warm it up.

Start with .5 turns out. Go for a ride. turn it .5 turns out each. Wait 20 to 30 seconds, go for a ride.

 

When you get the highest idle, then they're set. Adjust your idle to 1400 to 1800...

 

Same holds true as said above, less than .5 out, larger pilot, more than 2.5..smaller pilot.

 

Good luck... The key is not to try too many settings at once. In other words....don't change your clip AND pilots/air screws at the same time.

 

I try to dial the mains in first, then work down to the needle, then pilots and air screw. As long as I have a semi-decent idle and starts ok....I go mains first. Start fat, work down....
