New end can & k & n without jetting it ?

In the last six months with both in i've done about 8,000, nearly 'commuteless', pleasurable miles and it's been spot on.

Also confused as to how yours is perfect lol

You can really tell the difference on the face of it between the k N n and the stock one. stock one looks much more air restrictive, should have known better me really.

No idea. Lucky i guess.

You sure it is a K+N? Or maybe someone has modified it.

Difference between K+N and a BMC race RS for example is probably about 8 jet sizes...

The bike was already up to temperature when I fitted it, chucked it in, it did sound lumpy but I thought not too much from it at the time. Went to pull off, and it cut out, then it wouldnt start.

Managed to bump it on a hill, after that riding down the road, extremely jerky, no smooth power. Felt like crap

So ripped it out, chucked old one back in (which looked in pristine condition actually anyway) just gave it quick hoover.

Batt went dead from me trying to fire her up, the bike still idled all over the place with the old one back in but then everything settled down back to normal. (apart from me bending the gear selector rod with my hand trying to get it into a higher gear to bump it)

So my advise in this case, would be 100% jet it, my mate said this would happen, hes gonna wet his pants with laughter lol

Told you

The bit about you bending the gear selector rod worries me.

In future rather than using brute force and ignorance, why not think about how a gearbox works and just rock the bike back and forward a bit when trying to select a gear at standstill

Should a pointy require a new map? out of interest....

Why do you have it all fitted?

Your bike maybe running ok but i doubt you will be getting any more power out of it.
