Devans Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 Hey everyone, my t6's and pods come in tmo and im unsure of what size i need for my mains... The bike is stock other than that, and i am at sea level. Based on other references ive found, how does 330 sound? Do i have to just play with the mains or do i have to mess with the pilots and so on too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbooker82 Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 What elevation are you running at? I would say start out at 330. I would go a head and throw in the next size up pilot jet as well. The next size up from stock is 27.5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dajogejr Posted December 19, 2006 Report Share Posted December 19, 2006 330 will definitely get you close. Ran 340s in mine, T5 pipes, Pods...a few other bolt on odds and ends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool, i got everything installed, wow this thing rips... Anyways i put the 330's in, runs great from mid-top, but bogs and idles wierd on bottom... Should i try the 320's? Also does anyone have tips on installing the springs? They seem to be a bitch for me... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 Those mains have NOTHING to do with off idle response down low. That is all pilot jet/air screw. Please check the plugs, too...It may feel like it's running great, but...if it's lean you're risking premature failure!! Here's a plug chop method, and this checks the MAIN jet only.... http://www.dfn.com/benkaren/plugchop.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MDS2106 Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 You can try adjusting the air screws to help the idle and bog down low.As for the springs you can use 2 small zip ties on oppisite sides of the spring to compress it, then once you get the slide hooked back up to the cable and the keeper back in you just cut the zip ties.

Sorry, i forgot to mention i was taking about the exhaust springs... I just got them, stood the bike up on the grap bar and used some plyers. I adjusted the air screws some, seemed to get better, but started raining. Ill mess with it some more tmo and let you all know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
