Mike1600 Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I just bought a 97 Shee and I'm kinda lost. After all I've read on other peolpes posts I think I'm starting in the right place but I'm open to ideas before I order jets. My Shee has fmf fatty pipes and fmf power core silencers, boysen power reeds, boost bottle, K&N filter with no lid and I ride at appx 800ft elevation. Right now I have 35 pilots, 280 mains, 2 turns on the air screw, and the needle is 3 clips from the bottom. 32:1 mix on 110 octane. My bike starts and idles great with tons of mid and top end power BUT I have a major low end problem......no power and it sputters until about 1/4 to 1/2 throttle. I have a 13t front sprocket, 20in rear tires plus the fattys so I think I should have TONS of low end. I've checked the plus and they are soaked and I have oil spitting out of the exhaust. I was thinking I need to drop to a 30 pilot and 260 mains and see what that does? I was just wondering if anyone had a similar setup and could point me in the right direction so I don't spend a pile of money trying to get my bike dialed in. Thanks for the help!

fastbanshee8 Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 27.5 pilots, and 1.5 turns open, on the air mixture screws. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Man-O-Steele Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 Ditch those pilots and put 27.5 in there. Thats all you need to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man-O-Steele Posted May 24, 2012 Report Share Posted May 24, 2012 280 sounds about right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
