Jetting a 400ex
Okay, i put on a pro circuit t-4 pipe, still have the stock head pipe, and i went up to a 155 main jet. I also put on a k&n air filter with an outwear and took the air box lid off. So my question is can i put a bigger jet in? I read a post where someone put a 160 main jet with a white bros pipe and it runs fine, but i have checked my plug and its the right color, whiteish brownish, with the 155. I just wounder if i go with a 160 if it will cause my bike to run rich? If anybody has and comments then please reply. And what size jets are you running with pipe combo. ?Thanks.

I went with the 160 main and it dosent seem to be breaking up on the top, but i did notice a lil bit of soot, not much, in my pipe, but that may have been there before i changed the jet. I will clean the pipe out and see what happens tomorrow. But i have noticed a big diff when i pin the throttle, there seems to me alot more power. But if my pipe is sooting up should i go down to a 158? If this helps, here in NC where i live its right i sea level. Thanks again guys. Oh, also i have not donw anything to my carb other then changing the main jet, and yeah i have noticed its a lil hard to start some times so i think i am going to put in a bigger pilot jet, I've been told a 45 works good. What is the stock pilot jet size?
