#331999 Erbman02 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3800 Re:Why the HUGE jet? 1 Year, 5 Months ago   stock pilot is a 35, you have to take it out to see the number, it's written on it's side, really, really small. all Mikuni jets are stamped, their logo is a box in a box and sometimes also a "RR" if it does not have those markings on the main or pilot jet it is not Mikuni. look in tech articles, there is a color diag. where these jets are located   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #332009 WasHD (User) Fix it 'til it breaks Senior Boarder Posts: 205 Re:Why the HUGE jet? 1 Year, 5 Months ago   I'll pull the pilot out and have a look at it and see if I can find the marking, but the main DEFINATELY does not have any marking on it anywhere. I went over it with a magnifying glass and couldn't see anything. I'll try and take a pic of the jets and post 'em up, maybe Coalstoves will see something I'm "overlooking"   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #332043 coalstoves (User) Are YOU Sure Expert Boarder Posts: 480 Re:Why the HUGE jet? 1 Year, 5 Months ago   WasHD wrote: maybe Coalstoves will see something I'm "overlooking" I can't wait to see what you post a picture of   Logged     My Bikes Page SEAT LINK 1999 XV1600AL - ROAD STAR Never Time To Do It Right But Always Time To Do It Twice   The administrator has disabled public write access. #332081 WasHD (User) Fix it 'til it breaks Senior Boarder Posts: 205 Re:Why the HUGE jet? 1 Year, 4 Months ago   OK, here's a shot of the main. Don't know about you, but I can't see anything stamped into it. I did pull the pilot and it is stamped 35 on the side like Erbman said. Don't know why the main has no marking?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #332082 sailrider (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 281 Re:Why the HUGE jet? 1 Year, 4 Months ago   Mikuni Main jets are usually stamped on the Side , not the top........I think !!   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #332093 WasHD (User) Fix it 'til it breaks Senior Boarder Posts: 205 Re:Why the HUGE jet? 1 Year, 4 Months ago   Here's a few shots of the sides, I'm still not seeing any marking??   Logged     Last Edit: 2010/12/28 15:41 By WasHD.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #332098 Mr_Shamrock (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2901 Re:Why the HUGE jet? 1 Year, 4 Months ago   Here is a pic of a stock 165 that I have if you need it...   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #332102 WasHD (User) Fix it 'til it breaks Senior Boarder Posts: 205 Re:Why the HUGE jet? 1 Year, 4 Months ago   Thanx again for the offer Mr_Shamrock, but I think I'm going to need something a little larger than stock for the air cleaner swap I'm doing. Already have the Barons jet kit, so I should be good to go. This thread got a little off track when I tore into the carb and realised that someone else had already been in there and I started posting what I was finding. Guess it doesn't really matter what WAS in there, just what WILL be in when I'm done!   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #332105 Mr_Shamrock (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2901 Re:Why the HUGE jet? 1 Year, 4 Months ago   WasHD wrote: Thanx again for the offer Mr_Shamrock, but I think I'm going to need something a little larger than stock for the air cleaner swap I'm doing.

True - a word of advice, unless they are different than the Dynojet kits the instructions ask you to install too big of a jet. I think dynojet asks for a 190 or 195 and that is too big for a simple exhaust/ air cleaner upgrade. I think my last one ended up with a 180 or 185 in it and it ran great! Plugs were nice and tan!   Logged     Last Edit: 2010/12/28 16:13 By Mr_Shamrock.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #332109 Blackroadie (User) Sometimes I wish you were a pinata ! Platinum Boarder Posts: 4364 Re:Why the HUGE jet? 1 Year, 4 Months ago   I think they all tell you to go bigger than you really need to....jet kits...stealerships... thier motto.."its easier to clean a carboned engine, than replace a motor at thier expense that was to lean".   Logged     04 MIDNITE SILVERADO   The administrator has disabled public write access.
