First off, thanks for all your help with the other post.  So,  I've decided to try and do the carb mod myself.  I was thinking about going with a #152.5 main jet and decreasing the spacer by 1/3-1/2.  That's when I saw this Dynojet kit.  Looks like it's an all in one type deal.

Has anyone had any experience with this or can you recommend a different kit?  If I go with the #152.5 main, will I need to drill out the jet or should it fit?  Also, what do you think of this muffler?  It looks like it should fit at least one bolt.  Any suggestions?

Thanks again!!

Did not know that.  Thanks.

I didn't when I bought the kit either.  There have been discussions since then and a reference page was placed on the Technical Corner called Mikuni / Dynojet jet size comparison to assist.

That muffler would look really nice too.  I'm sure you'll still have to have an adaptor made for it - if for nothing other than to account for the 8 or 10 degree (whatever it is) angle required.  The Jardine and Mac already have these built in.  However, for that price, having an adaptor made at a muffler shop should be no problem.  The turnout would look good on the bike.

I'm not sure what you mean.  I was kinda hoping the channel bracket in the back would fit same as the stock muffler.  I thought it might be somewhat short, and I'd probably have to rig some sort of extra support.  Could you explain what you mean buy adapting for the angle?  Thanks.  Oh yeah, just thinking, how do you thin out the spacer?  I was thinking of using sandpaper or a file of some sort.

Probert--- Dont do the dynojet kit!! Rob is right it is a waste of your  $$ CASH $$ You can get the jet you want from the parts counter for far less and it will be alot less hassle. Be sure to get the float bowl gasket too in case it gets grunged up in the process to be safe. The jet just screws in/out no drilling is required (except for the removal of the brass air/fuel mixture plug thingy that you'll need to adjust after all is said and done)

If you're after a replacement for your muffler that will go right on with no hassles or mounting issues, see the Jardine I got for sale in THE MARKETPLACE!!!!

Wouldn't those washers eventually begin to rust though? I believe those are zinc not stainless steel or brass. Dont get me wrong, I'm no expert by any means but I know those mixed bag of washers have rusted up on other things I have used them on in the past. ???

I was just thinking, if I put a couple of those washers in a sealed glass jar with some gas it should give me some idea of what's going on in my carb.

Read the previous threads!!

Those cheap-a$$ stamped washers are not precision, non-QC , bulk items. Some have "dangling/hanging chads", the O.D.s were all too large on the ones I got and none installed correctly and intefered w/ the needle position.
All previously covered.
If we won't do the research, we are doomed to "quickly" repeat failures of the past.
