    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.

What Kit if Any?

Posted in my rebuild thread as well.

Wanted to look the carbs over one more time.

Bike had 4-1, kn pods, and supposedly had a jet kit.

Looking at the main air jet, it is a stock 180.

Not a dynajet.

Opening up the carb, it looked like the slide had been drilled.

The needle appears to be aftermarket. It has 5 knotches for adjustment. No identifying marks however.

The pilot jet only has one hole at the tip not multiple on the sides. It is marked with 5 then what looks like an h, then the mikuni mark.

Both the main jet and the needle jet are not marked. To find size where would I measure?

Not sure what I have going on here...

Thanks,

Looks like a Canadian stock needle to me... Only difference is that it has the notches. The DJ ones are much more pointed.

You need to measure the bore of the main jet where the small hole comes out at the end, quite difficult to do..

I would probably save myself the headache & get a DJ or Factory pro kit... I assume it wasn't running well (otherwise why do you have it apart?)
 
A 1/16 Drill bit fit almost perfectly into the main jet. Making the jet diameter ~ 1.6 mm.

That's a big jet!

Don't know why the PO installed them :confused:
 
Probably to get some kind of performance at mid throttle due to not enough taper on the needles...
A 750 I bought was setup like that, ran like a dog at full throttle even though it did kind of achieve something for lesser throttle positions...
