Title: Rejetting an 05
Post by: shmdalum on January 14, 2007, 07:59:35 AM
Ok so I'm ready to rejet, I have an 05 with K&N Filter, & Jardine full Exhaust. What jets should I use (I bought the K&N Stage 1 Kit)

I've looked all over but there appears to be dissenting opinions, and frankly I only want to do this once.

Your help would be appreciated.

Cheers,
Mike

Ok, I just did my 01,which should have the same carbs or use the same jets. You'll need to double check.
I have a lunchbox, wileyco can. Jardine should flow about the same. I ended up with a 22.5 pilot,65 mid main, and 150 main. 3 washers under the needle. 3.25 turns out on the mixture screw. Dump that kit and get the jets by themselves. A stage 1 is too lean on an already lean bike for a full exhaust and k and n...unless your using a drop in filter with the restrictor. But that's a waste of time imho.
I have a set of 65mids I'll send you for 6 buck, includes postage.and I'll send you 8 washers which is more than you need. (there small, you may loose some, I did).
Pm if your interested.
