moneybags Posted August 5, 2007 Report Share Posted August 5, 2007 I would say a 52 poilet jet and a 152 main jet should be a good starting point. Rember you are going to have to use different kinds of jets then the stock carbs use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbooker82 Posted August 5, 2007 Report Share Posted August 5, 2007 Are they the Air Striker's or regular PWK's. Air strikers have i believe 4 vents per carb and some funny looking fins in the front side of the carb. (air box or filter side). Do you have any porting or anything? Just pipes? If so I would start out with a 48 pilot (probably end up at 45 or 42) 152 Main like said above CEL Needle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevrolet banshee Posted August 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 thay are just normal pwk's and i have no porting thanks for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locogato11283 Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 i run 160 mains and 45 pilots at 1000 feet. so im assuming since youre at a higher elevation youll need less fuel. i think you should start at around 155 main and 42 pilot.

jbooker82 Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 Stock carbs are Mikuni. He has Keihin. They use a different numbering system for there jets. Mikuni uses how many cc's of fuel they will flow in 1 minute. I think keihin numbers there's acording to the actual size of the hole in the jet.

JKJK Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 "thay are just normal pwk's and i have no porting thanks for the help" 35's are way too much carb for your application.It will run allot better with the stockers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XxMeltIcexX Posted August 8, 2007 Report Share Posted August 8, 2007 CEL Needle (2nd clip) 155 mains 52 pilots I'm at 3009 feet and ive noticed if i go any lower than that the 2nd clip works better, i run middle 3rd (middle) although. I like oil :biggrin: Also im in very low humidity and a 80-110 degrees variance.. Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking the same thing.. 35's with no port work is way over carbed. I'd suggest staying with stock carbs until you get some motor work.

I'd suggest staying with stock carbs until you get some motor work. It will be faster and snappier with stock carbs....go back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd suggest staying with stock carbs until you get some motor work. Yep....I was looking for porting in the sig... Add his high elevation onto that...and it's really overcarb'd. I hate stockers....but, they do well for non-ported bikes. 30mm is the largest carb I recommend for non-ported motors. I see in your sig you had a single 35PWK...how come you're going with duals??
