Bike only runs with choke on

[akreider]

I have just rejetting my bike with a dyno stage 3 kit and I am running after market headers with a yoshi r3 pipe. I tried running my bike without the air filters because I havent gotten my k&n pods in yet and it would only run with the choke on. Would the lack of the air filters cause this problem?

Also what is the base setting for the air fuel mixture screw? Just trying to get it running so I can individual tune each carb.

first thing to try

Adjust you idel screw. it only turns 2 ways. The book says your bike should idle between 750 and a 1000 but I got mine set at about 1200 to me it give me the ideal preformance. That is just my personal preferance.

one more thing

If you put the stage kit in you have to adjust your set screws for both air and fuel mixture from what Ive gathered from this list. Running pods and aftermarket exhaust alows the bike to flow differant and the carbs must be tuned for this change. One of the other guys here should be able to tell you how to do this better then me

in one word, yes.

Don't try and tune without air filters... it's just not worth it...
