    Besides the stage 3 kit, only thing different is I installed the rubber plug under the pilot jet it didn't have them when I took the carb apart should they be in there

      Guessing no one knows why I have to block that air port for them to run right?

        When I bought my 11E eight years ago it ran great with stock air box and V&H 4-into-1. I installed APE pods and it was unrideable. I had to cover about 90% of the pods with tape to get it to run good. My mechanic asked me to spring for a Dynojet stage 3 kit, which I did. He said it was then relatively easy to jet it on his dyno, though he didn't give me specifics.

        So I'd say if blocking off some of the air improves it, it's not getting enough fuel.

        2016 XL883L sigpic Two-tone blue and white. Almost 42 hp! Status: destroyed, now owned by the insurance company. The hole in my memory starts an hour before the accident and ends 24 hours after.

          But its just the small main air jet that has to be blocked not the one with the air jet screw but on the other side of the back of the carb

            And I'm running 135s and 137.5 mains I feel like that should be plenty of fuel

              You probably block that air jet to compensate for something in the middle of the throttle would be my guess. The later carb kits from DJ do something similar with a restrictor.

              I don’t see how you’re going to get a good setup without a needle. Your mains sound way too big to me. Yes you need to plug the bottom of the main jet, without it the bike will pull through there at idle instead of using the pilot jet....
