    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.

Help identifying jets/jet kit

How can I tell if I have a Dynojet kit installed in my carbs? Are there any markings on the parts? I ask because when I bought the bike the PO said he rejetted the carbs but fouled the plugs once (presumably because it was running too rich). Based on my blue headers and a sad attempt at plug chops, I think it's running too lean. So I'm guessing he didn't use a kit and just put the (wrong?) jets in himself. I'd prefer not to damage or destroy the engine by running too lean, so any help you can offer is appreciated.

I'm beginning to wonder if I bit off more than I can chew by buying an older bike... :|
 
The main jets have a small head on them and the needle is pointy. I do believe the DJ jets have a DJ marking. Plus the slides will be drilled through the hole next to where the needle comes out of the slide.
If you want me to I can take a pic of a mikuni jet and a DJ jet side by side.
 
A picture would be great. :) I still don't know my way around these carbs at all.

The smaller jet is the DJ jet. The needle is stock. The DJ needle is pointed with notches in it to raise and lower the needle.
 
Thanks for the pictures. Tomorrow is supposed to be a rainy day, so I'll have to open up one of my carbs and see what I've got in there.
