Pods, Pipes, Panic! (Help! Your Bike has Pods)

That would be correct the inner cyls need to run a little richer as it helps with the cooling you may also find tho that the rings wear a little faster but its negligable and will possibly not be noticable on a normal mildly tune bike

Looking at that chart it looks lean. Personally I would use all the same size main jets instead of using larger on the inside cylinders if youre using pods. If you buy larger mains, remember that the DJ mains are sized differently. This can help http://www.jetsrus.com/FAQs/FAQ_miku...ihin_sizes.htm

I?m getting ready to rebuild the carbs on my 83 1100E. Last time they were off was in 1984 when the exhaust and pods were put on. This will be the first actual rebuild.So the jetting is spot on but is anything changed or updated significantly since then? Have my bottle brush looking carb cleaners and am ready to go. I?m right at 45,000 one owner miles.

Hello Newbie here.

Has anyone had success with finding a replacement exhaust for a 1981 GS1000G?

P.S: and remember always adjust the valves...FIRST
