    Dial-A-Jet

    Any one ever heard of these or tried them? Did a search here and came up with nothing. Thoughts and opinions on them as well.

    They've been around since the early eighties that I know of, maybe longer. I don't know of anyone that has ever tried them. It probably works alright right but I would think your baseline jetting would still have to be close to where it should be for this to work as you add mods.

        The advertising does not make sense to me, some mumbo jumbo about sonically adjusting the fuel flow? Not sure what that means. But no, never tried it.

          A real jet kit for about half that with all the adjustability you need.

            I have a set that I REMOVED from my FZ750. It basically replaced the plug on the bowls with a spigot. A small gas line then brought the fuel up to a small adjustable nozzle drilled into the airbox carb boot (!!!). I guess the basic premise is that you can richen/lean on demand, without moving needles or changing jets. Sounds nice, but I don't see how it won't overload fuel at low speeds, when smaller volumes of air are passing.

            I removed it, got new (used) airbox boots, and the FZ runs much better.

              That was kind of my thought. If you poke around the site they do have some innovative products they just seem a little gimmicky to me.

                I wouldn't use their product.
                And on the seventh day,after resting from all that he had done,God went for a ride on his GS!
                Upon seeing that it was good, he went out again on his ZX14! But just a little bit faster!

                  I've taken quite a few of these of bikes. Bit of an 80s gimmick that didn't work; I didn't realise that they were still being sold though.
