Starting spots for tuning '81 450

[raerickson]

So I finally finished my '81 bobber project:



And I need some help getting it to run right. Any suggestions on where to start to get this thing not running lean?

The "mods" that affect it are K&N intake and a chopped exhaust right before the original "flare" starts. The pipes are also wrapped in fiberglass and I ride at at elevation from 4k to 6k feet.

Also, where is a good place to buy new jets?

Thanks!

Did you get it tuned yet?

I'm curious how those pods and exhaust will work out!
