Ya, we should expecially when the origianl title was Uni vents for the air cleaner.
How do they ride on hard packed and trail riding. I still want something somewhat like the stock ride.

Anyway you will have to let us know about the fronts on how wide they will be. If the 12 are about 9 inches wide then the 9.5 should be about 8 theat wouldn't change a whole lot and I would be able to run them on the stock rims with no problem. Keep us posted.

 

Will keep you all posted. Will try this combo out next w.e....You'll hear Mon. am.

 

Yeah guys......gee wiz.....I keep looking up what I started to see more replys and its about your dad jim tires....[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

I dont mind. Its all good. Get your info out where you can.

Longarm.

 

Sorry, we should have used the tires thread!

 

So did your other set of tires come in today??? Or do you go on the trip without them?

 

Cool,
nice approach, I like the uni vent deal..15 vents, K&N filter, what size jets are you running, mains, pilots, & PMS screw adjustment? this looks like a good mod, sounds pretty cheap too, vents, filter, & jets & shims..also what elevation are you, that may influence jet size..
Thanks in advance CLP

 

Roc,
with you mod in the snorkle, & dryer sheets, what was your final jetting,needle position, etc.. & what kind of filter do you have?..
Thanks

 

Surveyor, I have not changed the jets yet. I thought the quad was running well, so I did not worry. I still have the stock filter. I am going to get the K&N with jet kit.

 

cool,
It is getting interesting in what you, coolinthe woods & oldman wheeler are doing..I'll probally read & see what the best approach to do is..

I jetted my Motorcycle, a Royal Star 1300, I cut the bottom of the airbox out & put a K&N filter in, went from a 1 3/4 hole to a 4x6" oval, went up 1 size on the pilots, 9 sizes on the mains, shimmed the stock needles .060, and changed the cdi box, added 5 degrees more advance quicker...& 750 more rpm..a real improvement..

I assume the same will be true for the big Kaw..
1) let it breathe
2) give it more fuel
3) advance the spark, & pick up more rpm,
4) try not to keep the grin on your face permanent!!!

at least that's the way it was for the 1300, still a year later I'm having problems with #4...
those mods were relatively cheap & easy.. the rest gets a little more $$$ becuase of cams & springs I decided to stop there..

I'm all in for the mods, I can change jets, .etc....the last jets I bought were 3 bux each..shims were 15 cents..so I ended up in the jet/air mod for about 95 bux on the scooter above..less than the cost of a jet kit.but you have to have some idea of what size jets to run..

 

Finaly got a chance to try out the new air box mod( extra 6 sq inches ). Had slight hesitation at initional takeoff, excellent throttle responce after that. Total top end gain 5mph. Will do plug read tomorrow night. This is with a stock air filter and stock jetting.
