:laugh: Good title.

Go to the dynojet website, and find the jet kit that matches your model.

Download the instructions, and read which dynojet jets that they recommend.

Now, compare them to this chart:


Thats where you can start, or just purchase the dynojet kit.

Good luck.

The pilot jets should be 50 for starters. Stock is 45 but they run better with 50's. I doubt you'll need to go larger than 50.

I would start the mains at 130 or 135 and see what they do (stock is 125). The needles in the stock carbs have five slots, stock position is center which gives you two slots richer if you need them.

BTW: your stock carbs are Mikuni BS-38.
