Title: Used 2001 already jetted for aftermarket exhaust question
Post by: el_brio on August 10, 2016, 09:27:36 AM
I'm unsure what jets are currently installed but know that it was rejetted when the last owner installed V&H full exhaust.  Bike runs great.  What are my chances of installing a lunchbox without needing another rejet?  If I need to rejet, is it even worth it?

1 - I can't answer your actual question

2- "bike runs great" - If it ain't broke, don't fix it? I sure wouldn't mess with it.

C'mon Torstein! .. its well known that a lunchbox increases lean angle confidence by at least 3%! ;) .. besides everyone wants their bike different! To each their own!... (except the cafe racer mods! That's just wrong! ;) ;) ;) ... )

As to the rejet issue..  probably!... the airflow/fuel rate will be different somewhat!... I don't know the tech specs..  Buddha is the man for that!

The bike will still run without rejet but you don't want to lean it out and make it go bang! :thumb:
