Jetting Baseline
Posted: July 2nd, 2012, 7:31 am
Hi all,
Hoping someone can provide a baseline for me to go from as I cannot find much for the altitude I am at. Bike has a 2001 engine with 38 PWK. When I got it, came from an elevation of 1033ft and the guy had a 178m 40p and CDJ needle on the 3rd spot. I live at 4500ft and 99% of our riding is between the 5000 and 8500ft. I bought a JD kit because it seemed to work pretty good for my KTM but not so much for this thing. JD said to use 178m 45p and his blue needle at 3rd. Well that does not work as it bludders when you get on it from about 1/2 to 3/4 throttle. I also went down a long stretch at 8000ft and WFO it bludders a bit too. Any ideas where a good starting point would be? I also use Maxima 927 at 35:1. Thanks.
