    Do I have to remove the carbs to install a jet kit?

    My Dynojet kit came in the mail today so I was planning on working on the bike this afternoon. I did a little searching and have some pointers written down but does anyone have any last minute advice?

    Do I need to remove the carbs from the bike to install this?

    YES. you need to remove them to fit the kit, plus a good clean wont go amiss!

      So I have everything ready to go with the exception of the throttle valve(slide). I put the Dynojet needle in, spring, washer, Eclip, washer but then I get confused. It says "use all stock spacers" and to put the "dynojet washer on top of the Eclip. So.....does it go (looking at it top to bottom):

      1.Nylon Spacer
      washer
      washer
      eclip
      washer
      spring
      needle

      Or

      2.Washer
      Washer
      Eclip
      Washer
      spring
      Needle.
