Last night I pulled the carbies off to install the new jets.  What I found was the right hand carby's main jet was a 125 and the left hand carby's main jet was a 122.5 :?  

Now with the new jets and the needles raised a notch (Aussie spec model), carbs balanced and idle screw set she does seem to run a bit better - have to wait until tonight for a test run  :)

Cheers

Actually, does anybody know what the standard setting is for models with the notches on the needles (1996 model) - just in case the ones in this bike have been changed as well?

Thanks

If it's the same as in Europe, standard would be 122.5 / 125 main jets, third notch.

The different jetting isn't all that weird. Remember that the firing sequence of the cylinders is fire-fire-exhaust-exhaust, so one cylinder must suck its air in right after the last one has basically "emptied" the airbox, so conditions are not symmetric.

Suzuki did this onyl for a few model years, though.

Thanks MarcusN.  I was concerned that somebody had been playing with the carbies and had maybe played around with the notch settings. Good to know the different jets are a factory default.
