Another one of those annoying jetting threads!

Quick question!

I rejetted my gsf that has a delkevic ds70 and lunchbox. 20/65/145 is perfect. Idles perfect, no flat spots, way more power! I didn't touch anything besides putting in new jets. Air/fuel screws are the same position.

The only problem is the choke.

If I put the choke on 3/4 to 5/6 of the way full, it is perfect.
When I go to full choke, it pops and stutters and kind of bogs down.

It's not a huge deal but I just want to figure it out so its perfect.

Thanks for you responses in advance!

It sounds right to me, not needing choke would bother me more  :thumb:

Okay thanks. I'll just never put full choke!

My bike is the same.
Stock it warmed up with 100% choke perfectly.
After filter/rejet I only use ~75% choke now.
I'm assuming that the stock bike was running slightly lean (most do for mileage and emissions) and that once it was rejetted it's now running properly or just barely rich (safer then lean) on the low end.
Therefor adding the same about of fuel with full choke pushed it too rich.
I now know exactly where to pull the choke lever, by comparing where it is with the high beam switch, to give my bike full choke without bogging it down.

Be aware, this is not very wise advise!

I had a calif model.
Removed most of the egr and tubing,
put more of a freeflow airfilter in than stock (not that this would make any difference idling).
I live in S-FL, so it's never below 75 degrees here, most of the time above 80.
I need no more than 25% of choke, or the bike dies down (usually around 50%).
Without choke my bike idles at 800-1000rpm cold.
Once warmed up it's a steady 1400-1500 RPM on the tach.

Okay! And I would rather not sacrifice ridability and performance for something like having to only to use 75% of the choke. Thanks guys!
