    Rich at ilde.

    I already feel my otherwise stock 80 gs1100 w/1150 carbs & a Dynojet kit runs rich at idle. Everywhere in the rpm range pulls great. How much will oiling my new Ape pods affect this condition? Should I consider smaller pilots?

    Make sure you have 125 pilot air jets if so use a 45 pilot jet since Canadian carbs run with a 47.5.
    Oh and over oiling the pods will cause a hesitation and for it to run rich at idle.

      How did you adjust the mixture screws?
      Has everything been jetted and set properly for the pods?
      How did you set the float height?

        Been a while since I installed a new jet kit but if I remember right the Dynojet kit comes with some (optional) pilot air jets the (DH160) possibly for the problem you are describing. Here is the instruction sheet link if you already haven't looked at it already. http://www.dynojet.com/pdf/3133.pdf Just a suggestion.

          I ran the pods unoiled for a few thousand kms on the 36 mm 1150 carbs. The bike ran great except for the rich smell at idle. I'm pretty sure that after oiling the pods it will richen my idle even more.

          Mixture screws were set to highest idle & floats to stock height.
          Pilots are currently 45's. Air jet is 150.
