It would be better to. It'll run without a change, but Honda's are lean from the factory and a slip on will push it over the edge. Try one size up from stock and go from there.

i would re jet it....my 450 would get so hott it burnt my new alpinstars, gear and all...once i rejetted it it didnt get near as hott.


it may be difficult to find the right size jet but its worth it...and buy the single jets not the kit comes out cheaper that way also.

You let more air in or out, and you need to rejet to keep the mixture at the proper air/fuel ratio. If you don't need a rejet, then all you have done is waste your money and make the noise louder.....
