Posts: 26	230 main jet? 04/19/13 at 14:39:40 Took carb apart to install new jets cause I'm running straight pipe and found out main jet is #230 and pilot is#52.5. The new ones are main jet#155 and pilot#52.5. My question is which jet will you'll recommend better #155or#230 . Boug

Is the #230 jet a "Mikuni" jet ? Or is it from a Dynojet kit ?
Dynojet has a different numbering system for their jets.

Also why did my bike had that jet and the adjustment was intact? ? Was that from factory? My bike is a 97 with 12k miles. Right now is running with this set up main jet #155 and pilot jet 52.5

Reply #8 - 04/20/13 at 06:58:49 Mikuni makes a 230 large round jet that will fit the BS40 carb but I don't see the bike even running with a jet that large. http://www.jetsrus.com/a_jets_by_carburetor_type/jets_mikuni_N100-604_main_La...

DynoJet jets are marked according to the diameter of the hole in the jet.
ie: DJ150 = 1.5mm and DJ175 = 1.75mm.

This is not true for Mikuni or most other OEM equivalent jets.
This size Mikuni jet, (N102.221 Super BN), is marked according to its' flow rate.
ie: 150 = a rating of 150 cc of fuel per minute.

That's what I get for getting my bikes off craigslist. But even if it is, a Dynojet 230 has gotta be at least like 190(something) Mikuni equivalent. WAY too big I think. Ya?

That jet has a hole so big you could throw your hat into it. Jeez, And I thought I had a nasty one...with 180 as the main jet.

One question: Are you sure that your bike has the original / correct carb? That jet looks like it comes out of a snowmobile or some race engine carb. I cannot fathom how your bike could have run without drenching itself.

What kind of straight pipe are you using? Just a free-flow, no baffle thingy? What kind of air filter?
