where to buy carb jets and shims
 

...as per title.

Further to my earlier thread i was also considering upjetting and de-snorkelling the bike.
Anybody done it and how difficult is it ??

PDQ sell DJ jets, they're about £3 a pair and they deliver really fast. Shims, not sure... Euro needles are slotted like DJ ones so you don't need them unless you want to do a half-step.

Or Wemoto do the Mikuni ones.

So if i upped the jets to mains to 145 and the pilots to 17.5, it wont need the shims? and would it be ok to run the bike without the snorkel with just a baffleless slip on?? also how difficult is it ??

Sorry for all the q's but it's my bday soon and i want to get it sorted before i do my mallory trackday :D

How long have you had the can on. Was the bike running okay previously.

Personally I'll check the air filter/plugs to confirm they are ok , then stick it on a dyno to check the air/fuel ratio.

You could be trying to resolve a non-existent issue. I also wouldn't bother with de-snorkelling.

Why would you want to up the Jets if it's running rich :?

All were changed for brand new no mre than 500 miles since( except exhaust which went on 6000 ago), the bike has been rich for around 6000 :roll: i just haven't had time to sort it. It *should * be going on a dyno in a week or so.

I'm just going on what the two links said. The air/fuel mix wants adjusting and i was going to upjet to increase performance according to this.

I may be completely wrong in my thinking but i'm just going on others guides.

Fink he said he was desnorkelling it too?

Fair enough :)

Oh when you have the bike Dynoed, make sure you get a print out of air/fuel ratio and curve. I'm sure there will be peeps on here that are good at reading Dyno graphs.

So am i right in what i'm doing :?

De-snorkel
Up mains to 145's
Where to get pilots from ?
Set Air / fuel tap to 2 1/2 ish turns
