Bs36 1135 jetting w/cheap pods ??

[tkent02]

K&N are known to be solid. There may be another brand that people have had success with. Maybe EMGO?

EMGO are the bad ones, just a screen like a flour sifter. They let a lot of sand in, but not a lot of airflow. K&N or APE are the ones to use. The airflow problem is that there is a square corner inside the cheap pods, as air flow speeds up, so does turbulence around the corner. Also why they don't flow much air. Good pods have a small velocity stack shape cast into the body of the pod, so the airflow is much more uniform.

The sand coming through the cheap screen is a bigger worry.

I have bought the K&N rc-0984 to hopefully have no dirt in the carbs from air.
Anyway, now with the one clip down on the original jet-needle and new main jet 128 it runs very nice (even with these EMGO). So i guess i don't need dynajets. I had the bike on a tour today, about 200km .. feels good. I normally keep speed limits, but to test a bit it followed up to my limits without any fault. I had about 7000rpm on 5'th and this is much faster then i believe i need. The sparkplugs looks good also-nice tan color. Hopefully there is not more restrictions in the K&N's that will mess up. Never change a winning team..but i still have the possibillity to put back original air-box.

Guess i have to buy Dynajets now..

Guess i have to buy Dynajets now..

I replaced the EMGO with the K&N..to much air and wrong tapered needle i guess because it did not follow up on the trottle. Then i put back the EMGO again the bike is fresh again. CV 36mm, one clip down on the original jet-needle and new main jet 128. Thinking about sand or dirt is now my worries for running like this.
So my conclusion is that its fully possible to run with the cheap pods, new mains and lifted needles on the 36mm carb, but with the K&N's i would need to do Dynajet convert i guess :-s
