Come on out to our dyno in Elburn (just west of Geneva and St.Charles. 38 and 47) and get it dialed in before you go so you don't burn it down in the sand. :clap:

 

(See Nickisgod's dyno post in the dyno section.) He drove out from NY to get dialed in for his trip. He was Thrilled. you will be too. :D

generally, if your bike is dialed in with dirt tires on grass/dirt/pavement then go up 2-4 main jet sizes when adding paddles and riding in sand.

 

best option would be to take it to a dyno equipped with an air/fuel meter. either dial it in perfect there and add the jet sizes, or tune rich and expect the paddles/sand adjust the a/f.

Yep. We set them up at 13:1 for sand and they are nice and safe. A dyno with an A/F sniffer is the only way to go. Plus it gives you a chance to get the pilot/main/needle/air screw dialed in correctly, as well as find the timing your motor likes.
