    Jet size differences

    My 81 gs650e BS32 carb lists the following standard jet sizes vs. those that I have installed:
    Main jet - 97.5 -> 110
    Pilot jet - 42.5 -> 42.5
    Pilot air jet - 175 -> 160
    I purchased a K& L kit, but if it will make a difference I will purchase some Mikuni jets. Where is the best store to purchase them?
    What differences might I notice with my current arrangement? I see more fuel passing through the main and less air into the pilot jet.

    What is the purpose of making changes? Are you jetting to correct for intake or exhaust changes/modifications?

      No mods, had to replace a few when I first tore them down for cleaning. The 110s and 160s were what
      was in the K&L kit.
      I see that these were common on other 650 models.

        I'd put the jetting back to stock. You can get proper Mikuni main jets at hundreds of sources, air jets, though, are going to be tough to find. The parts diagram suggest 175 is the proper size for the air jets. Did you save the originals?

        To measure is to know.
