Re:How often do you have to rejet ?? 3 Years ago  
Thanks guys , I am not going to take my carburetor down , I was thinking about just spraying my carb , by the way this is my carb :

Carb 1

Carb 2

Carb 3

Carb 4

Carb 5

I know is probably a stupid question , but do I just spray the MMO inside the carb ?? by the pictures can you tell if it's dirty or if it's damaged or something ??

From the looks of the slide I would take it out and clean the carbon off of it front and back with OOOO steel wool.

Nope . . . all I did was sprayed the carb with MMO , by the way I waited for the bike to die on me when I lowered the idle and sprayed , but it never happened you think I did it the wrong way ?? and about rejetting , do I have to buy another jetkit ?? or can I still use the same one ??

You need to keep spraying until you kill it. Basically flood the carb with MMO. You can use what you have but you should pick up a 180 Dynojet main. Go back through the thread and carefully read the posts. It was all explained. If you have a printer you can print out all the instructions and take them out to your bike with you so you can read them as you go.

You really need to get this done before you start comparing your mpg to others. Just hop in there and do it. It's not hard.
