I am getting a wileyco pipe and Bob B's ignition advancer soon and I'm wanting to rejet my 2001 GS.

I have no riding buddies (lone wolf), and I just need somene that could give me a tutorial and walk-through so I can learn how to do this.

I'd be happy to pay for gas/food if someone would be interested in helping a complete NOOOOOOOOOOB.

I live in Dublin, OH 43016 right off of I-270.

THANKS to all, BigTwin

i live in newark but i am by no means a carb expert (notice all my posts about my bike running weird). i have taken apart my carbs a few times, and i have a manual, i could help you take a whack at it some time.
The final measure of any rider's skill is the inverse ratio of his preferred Traveling Speed to the number of bad scars on his body. It is that simple: If you ride fast and crash, you are a bad rider. And if you are a bad rider, you should not ride motorcycles.

Sounds good, do you know any other riders around the central Ohio area. I was wanting to get a GS500 meeting together to discuss mods, problems, group rides, etc...

Hey there. I'm in Casstown 30 miles N of Dayton. Just made a trip Saturday to Columbus to the bike salvage yard "Rice Paddy". Great place.
I'm no guru, a mechanic though. Just rejetted mine with stock exhaust & air box. It runs ok now. Keep me in mind if you wanna get together. Was planning a ride in Southern Ohio as soon as the weather breaks. Some great area down there.
