jack350 Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 First i just wanna say thanks for even looking at this post for there are a thousand great posts on jetting that i could have used.. i have been stressing for a couple of days now, and i just found the elevation of where i ride (that google earth is good for U.S not for AUS) which it is roughly 625m - 2050 feet... the degrees would be between 20 - 30 degrees celcius or 68 - 86 degrees fahrenheit.. the mods on my bike are: - pro design foam air filter - t-5 pipes with air box vents ( dont know if they make a diff.) my clip on the needle jet is on the 3rd groove... i havent touched my air fuel mixture screw... i havent touched my pilot jet (dont really know what it is or where to find it ) .. i also used the needle's that came with the toomey kit should i use the stock ones??? please help me coz i wanna learn myself and would like to understand it as well i appreciate any feedback... thanks again guys stressed jack..

BenBB Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 If ya wanna understand it, check this. It's a start at least. If it was mine I'd go ahead and use the Toomey needles, start where you have 'em in the middle clip position...it's trial & error but you should be somewhere between 270 and 300 on the mains, you might need 30 pilots and for sure will need to play with the airscrews but once you get it all dialed in perfect it'll be well worth the effort. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiftdT4R Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 As far as the airbox, are you still running the lid, you just have vents it it? Got a pic by any chance? If so, I'd say your around a 270 or 280 main and a 27.5 pilot. Then your probably around 1 to 1.5 turns out on the airscrew. A 30 pilot might be too big depending on what that airbox looks like.
