going to have ago at rejetting a gs500f and need help

[deathlucky]

hi
i have a gs500f 2006 modle its my first motorcycle and i want to hot it up abit at the moment its fully stock
i went to the local shop that dose mods and they said $800 for that which is bull sh!t.

so i was thinking

K&N air filter
K&N oil filter
rejetting
ignition advancer 4-5 degree

what size are the stock jets? and what size jets would i be after? i want to keep the stock pipe.
do i really have to drill out the plugs? i dont want my dealer ship to know what i have done.
where can i find a carb diagram for the gs500f 2006 model?
dose anyone know an australian website where i could get the parts or a website that ships to australia?

thank you

I thought you couldnt do an ignition advancer on a F model

[deathlucky]

im sure i read some where on this site that u can dodge it up yourself

[TadMC]

Yeah but i'd make sure some one did it on the F,  because something is obviously different if they dont do ignition advancer for it.

Just be careful

[deathlucky]

the only diffrents i see is that the older gs500 have 2 pick ups and the gs500f only has 1

Don't waste your money on the oil filter...stick with Wix.  And nix the advancer.

Spend the money and buy a full exhaust and a buy a jet kit for factory or equivelant.

(there will be a full GS exhaust in Mak's Kitchen before too long)

Stock jets are pilot 17.5, mid 60, main 130. New jets (and/or raising needle) depend on what kind of air filter you will get. There are three types, following in order of air flow (1-3 : lower-higher):
1. drop-in replacement for stock,
2. large oval filter and removal of air box, 
3. two individual filters,

Also decide if you want to get slip on or full exhaust. I would really recommend buying new exhaust. The sound improvement is so sweet .

When you do then we can suggest jets. Also try to search old posts, they were very helpfull for me when i needed info.

[deathlucky]

i have looked around the site and i cant find any thing on the new carbs only the old carbs i have a 2006 modle dose anyone know where i can get a diagraam of the carbs

thank you

[deathlucky]

ok it looks like 20 pilots 62.5 midmains 132.5 or 135 mains.
will i need a needle?

also i have engine oil on my stock paper air filter i asked around if this is a prob and i was told it will use alot more fuel why is this?
i get 270km til reserve but now i am getting 210km so if i get a K&N air filter will i be able to clean engine oil out of it because its bound to happen again
