Rejetting for 4into1 pipes on gs850glt
Hello, I need help with jetting my carbs. The previous owner put a set of 4 into 1 pipes on my 850GLT and it runs good all the way up until 7k and then it will start to run lean. I have confirmed the factory jets are the same. I have synced the carbs so that isn't an issue. Any advice on what size I should go to? Thank you!Last edited by noahjar; 08-29-2025, 03:47 PM.Tags: None

It's trial and error. Is the airbox installed? A header doesn't typically cause big jetting issues, but removing the airbox and installing pods does.
Taking your comments at face value, try bumping the mains two steps and see what happens.Ed

Delkevic list their exhausts as needing no jetting changes when using the stock air box but it sounds like you may need to go up a size or so on the mains if there are no other faults or changes causing the issue.

If your carbs are synced and jets are stock try going up one or two sizes on the main jets to fix the lean spot after seven thousand rpm Make sure you are running the right airbox too since that affects jetting a lot
Also confirm which pipes you actually have Delkevic and MAC can need different jets
Start there and see how it runs

Try removing the airbox cover. That was the only mod many 4-into-1 pipes required.1982 GS1100E V&H "SS" exhaust, APE pods, 1150 oil cooler, 140 speedo, 99.3 rear wheel HP, black engine, '83 red
