    82 GE1100E jetting, header & oval K&N pods

    I bought a set of carbs off of an 82 1100E to rebuild. It like my bike has a header & oval K&N pods. Other than the needle seats being stuck in they were in decent rebuildable shape. The main jets have 170 on them, and the pilots are marked 45. both the main, and pilot jets have a marking a square with a smaller square on the lower left of the main square. I believe it had some type of jet kit installed years ago. I rode the bike about 5 years ago before it was parked. It ran pretty good except it had a small flat spot rolling on the throttle slow about 2K RPM, might have been a little crud in the carbs. With the header & oval K&N pods I would expect it to run like a pig without jetting. Does anyone recognize these jet numbers. I would like to do it on the cheap without buying a jet kit. Any help is appreciated.

        The square within a square is a Mikuni logo, they are OEM Mikuni jets. 170 is HUGE, stock is 107.5 or 115 depending on year. I only have a 135 in my 1260 dragbike....

          The plot thickens, the particular bike these carbs came off of did use a lot of gas but not like it was grossly over jetted. It showed decent spark plug color and ran strong. It might have some other mods like modified air bleeds? I need to look at the carbs better for other mods.

            I ordered 170 mikuni jets and they didn't even thread into the needle jet, that's weird.

              Are these the filters you're using on your bike?
