Title: Main and pilot - International seller?
Post by DNLMusik on 03/30/12 at 04:57:31

So, I'm gonna head into the jungle called re-jetting my carb.

I'm planning on putting a K&N-filter and a more "open" muffler on the bike since I'm building a bobber. My problem is I can't seem to find main and pilot anywere here in Sweden. Would any of you guys know from where I could buy these?

Which also brings me to my next question. Which main and pilot should I go for? The bike is running well at the moment with everything stock. I've been having problems with backfire and poor idle, but got that sorted with adjusting the mixture screw, 3-3½ turns did the trick for me.

I will be pulling everything down and wanna get the main and pilot swapped when It's all down since I'm putting it back together with the K&N and another muffler. Would be good to get it right at first try!

I would buy a range of jets, since it seems the problem youre having is availability. Wouldnt it be a lousy moment to locate a supplier & arrange shipping & then discover you shoulda got a jet just a Liiitle bit bigger or smaller? Id bet theres someone here who would put together a pack of jets & ship them to ya..

That would've been awesome if someone could do that. If anyone feels like helping a savage brother out, I could transfer money with paypal.

But there should be some sort of knowledge here of what USUALLY is the optimal jet sizes for K&N and meaner muffler. Although I do agree with you getting various sizes just to be sure.

Ohh yea,, theres several guys here who can look at your elevation above sea level, your intake & exhaust & give you a range of jets based on that. You wont have to buy every jet out there,,
Im not smart enough to take a shot at the jet sizes, I just know the questions theyll want answered. Elevation plays a part, I think your average humidity does too,,

Well the temperature here during summer is around 75°F-85°F, elevation is 10m-50m depending on where I go, but somewhere around that. I have no idea if that is helping anyone figuring out what I need.
