    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I have a 1982 gs750t with kircker headers and am looking to put in some fatter jets and am looking for some opinions
 
What baffle do you have in the muffler?

Yep, makes a difference what your jetting will need to be.

Also need to know if you have the stock airbox or pods.

Yep, different jets again.

One quick suggestion that will likely be seen a few times is a Dynojet kit. Stage 1 if you just have the header, Stage 3 if you have pods, too. Buying a Stage 3 kit will also give you the parts for Stage 1. The biggest advantage of the Dynojet kit is the needles, which allow a MUCH better transition throughout the throttle range.
 
I'm not sure on the baffle this muffler came with the bike and I'm prolly going to change the muffler soon and I know I have the stock airbox
 
When you decide what muffler you are going to install, we can give you some better answers, but the Dynojet kit is a good starting point.

Things to identify that will help determine jetting:
How loud is the muffler? Is it LOUD or somewhat reasonable? Noise is the result of an open ("competition") exhaust. The open exhaust can flow more air, so larger jets are needed.
To help determine type of baffle, put something LONG and thin up the muffler exit (or remove the muffler). If it only goes a few inches, it might be a quieter "street" baffle. If it goes straight on through, past the collector and up toward the engine, it's probably a "competition" baffle. You can also get an idea by the diameter of the outletl. Larger is usally louder, meaning larger jets in the carbs.
 
Hello, I just wanna see a pic of your "T". Can you post a pic of your bike?

Memories of My "T"

See what I can do she's in pieces at the moment

Not trying to steal your thread...just encouraging you to show your bike. My "T" is parked since July 2014. :(

She was mildly taken apart when I first got her in late 2012 early 2013:

Thanks for posting. I shop at harbour freight too; I noticed the red sitting stool.

I spent alot of time polishing and wiping her down. A Suzi cleans up well.

OMG, she is fun! She's very maneuverable considering her weight and era. I love my "T".
