05stroker Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) i got a brand new set of 28mm mikuni flatslides and im having trouble jetting them, 290 main 30 pilot 175 emulsion tube clip on the 4th from the top,bike is stock except t5's,4 degrees of timing and pods,fresh rebuild also,held 7 pounds for 35 minutes on a leakdown,my question is what needle should i be running and are the 175 emulsion tubes enough? or too big? any input helps,thanks I can't remember what emulsion tubes I had in mine, 175 sounds familiar. With Pro Circuits and pods I was running 320 mains and 25 pilots. I don't remember the clip position on the needle. What needle are you running. I think mine were a 5L1. I think the 30 pilot mite be a little on the big side. Edited February 3, 2012 by 05stroker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broke_Banshee Posted February 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 5dp39 is the number on the needle,and the slide itself says 2.5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
05stroker Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 That should be the correct slide. I don't know much about the different needles for those. I just know that mine were the 5L1's. What's your elevation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
