#144470 GJCARVING (User) Wether you think you can or can't, your right... Platinum Boarder Posts: 1063 Are all Stock Carbs the same? 3 Years, 5 Months ago   Hello! I'm wondering if all the Roadie carbs come set the same from the factory even if the bike is at altitude. Just seeing if anyone knows, cause then I'll have some more questions. Thanks! What I'm trying to find out is if they are all jetted the same!! Thanks Oh, for 2004 and up!!   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/12/08 21:57 By GJCARVING.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #144475 Greysnake (User) I'm so far behind I think I'm first. Platinum Boarder Posts: 7911 Re:Are all Stock Carbs the same? 3 Years, 5 Months ago   To the best of my knowledge all Road*s in the US are the same carbs 04 thru 07. Pre 04 jetted different.   Logged     Last Edit: 2008/12/08 21:57 By Greysnake.   06 Midnight Silverado *nothing shines like a star*   The administrator has disabled public write access. #144477 GJCARVING (User) Wether you think you can or can't, your right...

Platinum Boarder Posts: 1063 Re:Are all Stock Carbs the same? 3 Years, 5 Months ago   OK, so my bike is at 7000 ft. Seems like I could do a BAK or the like without changing a thing. I guess thats where I am going with this.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #144502 Musky (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 15137 Re:Are all Stock Carbs the same? 3 Years, 5 Months ago   Kinda took the long way around asking. Maybe. Maybe not. Don't do it if you aren't willing to put whatever time and effort you need to get it tweaked right.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #144507 GJCARVING (User) Wether you think you can or can't, your right...

Anyway, just notice that all you guys are running much smaller jets and needles and have exhaust and a Bak. I;m planning on those mods this winter! By The way Musky, how are you liking the Pro Pipe   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #144605 Ratl (User) Time is just, priceless and it expires. Gold Boarder Posts: 850 Re:Are all Stock Carbs the same? 3 Years, 5 Months ago   GJ, cheers neighbor. I'm in Albuquerky using Mr. C's K&N filter mod with stage III stock pipes and removed AIS. It took a little while, more than a few WOT tests and some PMS tweaking, but, I'm pretty happy with the results. I used Roadkill's set up on his carb as a starting point and adjusted from there. Right now I'm running a stock Mikuni with a Dynojet 170 main, DJ needle set at the 4th clip and my PMS 3 & 1/8 turns out. Running great and I'm not fouling out my plugs anymore. BTW, it's a lot easier to do my PMS adjustments without the stock air cleaner cover in the way. Hope it helps you get started. Check on Roadkill's setup too, he's in Santa Fe like yourself.

The stock needle is so fat that you have to have the larger main jet in there to make it work. Assuming your jetting is ok as is, adding a bak and new pipes will make it lean. You will need to rejet with a good aftermarket kit to get it right. Something like Baron's kit.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
