new old pipe

[racer x]

i just found a 79 series kerker kr pipe, and im threatining installing it on my 78 gs1000, my bike is totally stock, and i like the quiet, but where would i start w/ jetting?, stock carbs, airbox, everything, dont know if i will install this, but one day i might do it, i know the thing will be super loud, the baffles are 2 1/2", this was on a open super street bike in the mid 80's, but could be fun, one big problem is that i will have to remove the rear foot peg, and stock pipe frame work, the kerker comes right up in that area, is a big decision,thinking about the jetting is on my mind, thanks................. along w/ the pipe i got a martex optical ignition, rear sets, original lockhart oil cooler, and four really clean stock turn signals.

Damn, nice score! I'm pretty sure you can get Dynojet kits for that, which can save you some frustration.

Jetting VMs is easy, but do you really want the noise?
You said you like the quiet.
