    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    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.

Nobody does, but you said

"I have only ridden it around the block a few times. It sat for 10 years so Ive been getting her back into good health. "

Maybe PO wished he went for Dynojet kit- just changing jets is easy, but there is other stuff to consider.

If you plan on running with pods and a pipe a dynojet kit isn't just recommended, it's nearly required.
The problem with this set up on those carbs isn't so much the jet sizes as it is the needle shape. The stock needles are nearly impossible make work well with pods. It's just too much air and the needles are too fat and limit the fuel flow too much.

Honestly, I'm not trying to make you spend money. But I learned a long lesson by trying to avoid this very thing, and that is just that it's nearly impossible to jet those carbs by hand using the stock needles.
You may get it close, but you'll be leaving quite a bit of power on the garage floor, and you'll still have flag spots in the rev range. Install a jet kit, and you'll seriously be amazed at how much power that bike really has compared to what it's felt like to you this whole time.
 
Your right cafekid. Dynojet kit on the list of things to order before ride time starts in spring.
