The mods really work!!!! I busted some arss 2day. My bike has never ran as good as 2day. I am stoked.

 

OMR,

Good luck to you on your surgery. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

 

OMR,
Best of luck with your surgery.

 

OMR,

Ever get a chance to finish your jet kit?

Thanks for all the tips here.

 

I hope to have the last part(springs) by friday. The organization that does my emulsion tubes only did 6 of them. He wants me to order 100 at a time. One more tests this weekend and then I will be able to quote a price.

I may have to destroy my prototype to get final dimensions. I just started a new job as Quality Manager for a screwmachine job shop. Maybe I can talk my boss into making my parts for me.

Thanks for all the info on stock carb mods. I ordered my jet kit today and will start mods this weakend. My question is: do I need 4 ports in the slide? My airbox lid will remain in place, K&N stock replacement filter, ballance tube will remain in place. Stock exaust in place since I MUST have a USFS sparky and I haven't seen an open end cap with one.

 

When the throttle slide is complete, you will have 4 vacuum ports, all drilled to 1/8 inch. Be carefull when you add the 2 new additional ports. Use a sharp pick or very pointed center punch to locate drill position. First drill with 1/16 drill and review hole location. If off slightly, then side drill with 1/16 drill to locate to best position. Then final drill with 1/8.

 

OMR I have a few questions for ya and a favor to ask of you, im from WI and in Waupun to be exact, just wondering if you could do some carb work for me? Please get back to me asap!
Thanks Derrick

 

awesome thread, definetly have to get started on this stuff!

 

ok, i actually sat down and read this WHOLE dam thread...holy crap!! as you can see now, i have a stock 06. I ordered my dynojet kit and I'm waiting on that. right now it's a lil cold even in my garage here in michigan, and I really have to see my carb in front of me to understand some of this stuff. I will pull it off my bike when i get a chance and read thru some of this again to get a better picture. I guess I can't really ask too many questions right now till I understand everything a little better. I don't even understand what the jet sizes and locations exactly do, but when I see it it should make more sense. Right now, im running open lid and just bumped the idle up a little. when it was warm out it ran better, right now in the cold im guessing it's running rich. I should pull my plugs and take a look and see. any advice right now where im at is much appreciated. I know a lot of hard work and hours of testing and crunching some numbers went into this. thanks everyone especially OMR and Freez. I have thought about gettin a hold of the TM 45 carb but I don't know much about those yet and if I can make good power with the stocker then why not? I dont want to run just a K&N off the carb because of the conditions I ride it. Im more of a trail guy right now and it can get pretty nasty.
