#280503 Chubs (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 112 Air filter Question 3 Years, 1 Month ago   Found a K&N filter and cover on ebay and am curious if I'd have to jet the carb or not. It uses the stock air box. I'm also running V&H longshots. Thanks fellas.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #280504 GJCARVING (User) Wether you think you can or can't, your right... Platinum Boarder Posts: 1063 Re:Air filter Question 3 Years, 1 Month ago   No jetting required if you are still using the stock air box. It's only needed when you change toan open air style filter.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #280505 Chubs (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 112 Re:Air filter Question 3 Years, 1 Month ago   Awesome, thanks for the quick reply.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #280511 billd (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1107 Re:Air filter Question 3 Years, 1 Month ago   Chubs wrote: Found a K&N filter and cover on ebay and am curious if I'd have to jet the carb or not.

Does is look like this? http://www.knfilters.com/yamaha_custom.htm If it does, you will probably have to rejet. If it is this style make sure you get one of these also: http://www.knfilters.com/search/product.aspx?Prod=E-3495PK If it is the K&N filter that looks like this: http://www.knfilters.com/search/product.aspx?Prod=YA-1704 This style fits inside the stock air box using the stock cover you probably will not need to rejet.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #280514 GJCARVING (User) Wether you think you can or can't, your right... Platinum Boarder Posts: 1063 Re:Air filter Question 3 Years, 1 Month ago   Ok, re read your post and look what billd posted. If it goes inside the stock air box and uses the stock cover than no rejet, but, if it is similar to the one billd posted where you can actually see the filter than most likely you will have to rejet.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #280526 Chubs (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 112 Re:Air filter Question 3 Years, 1 Month ago   billd, I think its the same thing that you have on your bike in your sig pic. K&N filter with the V 98 cover. I'm guessing that with more air and same fuel I'd be looking at a lean condition?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #280534 billd (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1107 Re:Air filter Question 3 Years, 1 Month ago   Chubs wrote: billd, I think its the same thing that you have on your bike in your sig pic.

Chubs, I have an '08 V102 with EFI so I can't help you with the rejetting questions but the guys here who have '07 and earlier models have a wealth of knowledge on the subject. Just stick with it and they'll get you thru it. BillD PS: You can find discussion threads on rejetting by using the search feature in the upper right corner of the Forum screen.

K&N filter with the V 98 cover. I'm guessing that with more air and same fuel I'd be looking at a lean condition? Oh yeah. Get a Baron's jet kit. When I put on my K&N and tried it before re-jetting, it would barely get to 50MPH. I have the 172.5 main, clip in 4th groove from blunt end with 1 plastic & 1 metal washer under clip, PMS out 3.75 turns. That should get you into the ballpark. I get from 42 to 50+ MPG.
