    jetting gs750esd '83

    I have a suspicion I have too large jets. Can someone tell me what would be optimal for my bike? Currently the Main jet in 130 and the Pilot jet is 40.

    Symptoms:
    • Poor gas milage
    • Mid range running poor. stumbles, hesitates.
    • Low range and top range it pulls hard and evenly.

    The plugs looks ok to me. I have not experimented with plug chops yet, but I want to when I know the jets are the somewhat the right ones.

    Jetting sounds a little on the large side if I recall correctly. I believe I have 122.5.'s in mine same basic set up but different pipe. I have stock air box, with K&N filter though.

        Bare in mind I have never worked with jetting ever when I ask this.
        To improve the mid range I should shim the needle to a leaner/richer condition, according to what color the plugs are?
        Do the main jet and pilot jet influence the mid range at all?
        Any thoughts on the fuel mileage (19-21 mpg)?
