    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Ok now that its running I have another question, My airbox has large holes cut in it, a K&N filter and the muffler says Gemini Corona California on it. But when I took the carbs apart to clean them the main jets had the 95 and 102.5 stamped on them. This cant be correct for the mods? does anyone know of the correct jetting for this setup?
 
Those are stock sizes.

If airflow capacity has been increased, your jetting also needs to be increased.

How much? I can't help you there, will have to leave that to someone else.

.
 
the jet kit instructions say to use 102.5 jet on #1-4 and 105 jet on #2-3 and move the needle jet down 1 clip towards the point (or use 2 shims (included in kit)). And fuel mixture screw turned out from seated 3-1/2 turns. theres a few other mods to for racing bikes, but probably not needed to explain those.

edited: that's for a 4-1 header, K&N filter mod, so go from there I guess.
