It will almost certainly be right if the induction is the same (i.e same air filter)

Years ago, I had mine dyno'd. Dunoo what jet size is in there now, but they're non standard, and I can't run the bike without having a butchered air filter, a standard one makes it run like a bag o poo!!

Dizzy yours has a different filter so is probably running in region of 150 mains.
Like I say, for stock air filter leave jets alone. More hassle than is worth whatever tiny gains are to be had.

virtually none on just a slip-on can, it's a noise thing; standard jets are fine.
Cheers Mark.

Mine is a standard filter, with a hole cut out of the top.

However for gains with stock exhaust system it is not at all worth the hassle of guessing yourself, or the expense of dyno'ing to suit. Just IMO, and I've done a few variations of this myself.
