Really theres probably no way to tell. Its just guess and check. Start out with something like a 140 main and work your way down.

heck, I'd just spend the $45 and get the k&n jet kit. it comes with instuctions on what jet to run with what mods. it tells you what needle settings to run, how much to adjust the air/fuel mixture screw.

yea, you could do it yourself with a days worth of trial and error, but how many jets are you going to have to buy to get it right? how many spark plugs are you going foul-out before you get it right?

k&n uses a diffrent set of numbers, maybe thats why the number they gave sounded wrong. all I know is, I never had any experience tearing a carb apart or making any adjustments to it. and with the k&n jet kit I was able to install a pipe, and an outerwears air box lid, then nail the jetting on the first try. and the bike runs beautfully.
