I have a 1891 GS750E with stock carbs, new pod filters, and a re-packed Kerker header. Can anyone provide me with what jet size I need to make it all happen. Thanks in advance. jim
 
see if there is a DJ jet kit for you bike(look up Dynojet); they will list the DJ jets for Stage 3 convert to Mikuni.

You will also need to change needle height so a steped grooved needle is best and at least for the 1100E you need a DJ needle.
 
i'm gonna guess a say he has some shiny chrome wire mesh cone filters also.
mmm...maybe emgo's.

Hi Mr. JW-GS750E,

What the guys are trying to say is, get the right gear to make the modifications as painless as possible. Cheap pod filters will never work right no matter how you jet the carbs. Get the K&N filters or maybe the APE parts from HERE along with a Dynojet Stage 3 kit and you'l have a much easier time. Otherwise, a general rule is to go up 3 or 4 sizes on the main jets, up one size on the pilot jets, and shim the needles. Then perform plug chops to see if it's dialed in right for all the carb circuits. You'll find carb tuning tips and links in the carb sections on my little website along with articles on how to do plug chops. Let's get started. :D

I just stopped by to welcome you to the forum in my own, special way.

so 105.00 to the door is a bad price?
i really wouldn't care what the shipping is as long as the total price is good.
105.00 to the door seems like a smokin deal to me.:clap:
 
Rapidray has adjustable needles for sale for $60 a set.
I'd jump on those.
Get ahold of some Mikuni 120 and 122.5 main jets(start with the 122.5). Drill the slide. I need to measure the drill bit. Start with the needle on the third notch from the bottom. Bring out the idle mixture screws to around 3 turns out. Use the highest RPM method on each cylinder.
I hope you have K&N filters.
 
bill,
how much will he save over buying a kit?
thats my point.
i'm glad to see your typing better:-\\\
