The thing rips as it is but would different jetting adjustments add more even though everything is still stock ( just a couple of weeks old ). I do all my riding at about 2000 to 4000 ft I think. I'm In Central Alberta. New to this whole jetting thing but trying to learn all I can. Any good websites or logs that explain it all. Thanx

 

I have a 07 525 outlaw and I am looking into making some air box changes and riding in the cold so I was looking into a dial a jet see this http://www.hotseatperformance....duct_ID=2019&CATID=248

 

I've seen that thing a couple of times throughout magazines and different websites and everybody says it actually works pretty good. Wouldn't mind trying it but wouldn't want to drill a hole into my actual carb though.

Forgot to mention before but my factory jetting settings are:
Pilot jet - 45
Main jet - 148
Needle jet - OBDVS
Needle clip position - 5
Slow air jet - 100
Not exactly sure what all that means.

 

What nobody have any input on what to do, if anything?

I don't have any websites to share at the moment, I did research years ago and found what I needed. However, I have come across some useful websites indadvertently. I would recommend just spending the time searching, they're out there.

Some of the basics are:
Adjustments in these areas will affect:
Main Jet: Wide Open Throttle.
Needle Clip: 1/4-3/4 throttle.
Pilot Jet: Idle-1/4.

You'll have to read up on the rest.

My advice is to take the time and play around with it if you want to learn. Make sure you keep a log of each set-up, Air Temp, Alt. and humidity, even terrain ridden. Then you can judge the performance based on facts and data.

Each mod you do will affect the entire set-up. More air due to an airbox mod will impact the amount of fuel required from idle to full throttle. This also includes the exhaust flow as well.

Think of your engine as a big air-compressor that is restricted by the airflow coming in and going out. You will need to match the fuel required to the airflow. Each adjustment in airflow will require an adjustment in fuel. These areas are restrictions in the intake (airbox, porting, ect.), restrictions in the exhaust (pipe, muffler, porting, etc.), RPM. They all play together.

Keep in mind that having a great running motor is only part of the equation. The set-up is key to performance. A great running motor won't do you much good if you can't put it to use because your suspension doesn't allow you to control the bike.

Probably not exactly what you're looking for in a post. Just search the internet (it's out there). Read with a grain of salt, not everyone knows what they're talking about. Experiment, it takes a little time, but then it helps you decide for yourself what really works and what doesn't.

Exactly what Bill said.

The Outlaw 525 is coming very lean from the Factory. A rejet is a must.

Go to Predatorowners.com or Outlawcentral.com for all the info on your new machine you desire.
