    Jet Block Rubber Plugs

    Hey, guys, Does anyone have a source for the rubber plugs in the jet block other than the 5-dollar OEM's from the online sources? For that price I'll just single-point a brass plug and thread it into each one but it is more work than I want to do. Thanx, Bud Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Update On Tuning Woes

    Well, with the help of a GREAT GUY (Maleko89):worthy: for getting me the jets I needed I now have a MUCH BETTER running bike! I have always had a pretty paltry running '94 (Cali version) and I was tired of the transitional stumble from idle to part throttle and the overall inability to adjust...

    Inside Diameter Dimension Of Pilot Jets...Anyone?

    I have looked exhaustively for any info on Mikuni pilot jets and all I can get are thread pitch and overall length but I NEED the dimension of the hole of the respective jets. Can anyone give me those dimensions? I need the I.D. of a #40 and a #42.5. I have all of the necessary equipment to...

    Jetting Question--Stock Engine @ Sea Level

    Hi, folks, I've read the numerous posts about individual owners' settings and the overall jetting questions in general but I want to get a general "consensus" about my setup. I have to split the rack,.....again... because I have peashot, shotgunned, and Sea Foamed myself to the brink of insanity...

    Handles Squirrely On The Freeway

    I don't know if this is the right thread but I'll post it here. My bone stock '94 handles squirrely on the freeway. This is a 9500 mile bike. The front end seems really light at cruising speed as it wanders just usually on the concrete freeways with the "rain" grooving. Pretty unnerving to say...

    34mm or 35mm?

    I have heard conflicting stories. Some say Vmax carbies prior to '92 were 34mm and the latter are 35mm and others say they have always been 35mm. I know the Ventures are 34mm. Is this true? Thanx, Bud

    Needle Comparison--49-state vs. Cal.

    Maybe this can be part of the sticky..:eusa_dance: Anyway, I wanted to do some calculated comparison between the 49-state needle, 5EZ43 & the California counterpart, 5EZ50. I used my RAM optical comparitor here in the lab to measure the "business end" of the two and I then dialed in all of the...

    Morley's Muscle Kit w/ Stock Cans?

    Is it advisable to step up to the Morley Muscle Kit on a bone-stock bike with nothing more than drilled endcaps on the stock cans and maybe the COP's? Iv'e read all of the rave reviews about his kit and the expertise that has gone into it's development and I am all too impressed to say the least...

    Overall Results..49-State Carbs On Cal. Engine

    Over the weekend I swapped out the carbs on my Cal. bike with a set of 49-state bodies. I had completely disassembled them and swapped in all of my gaskets and jet blacks, needle jets, diaphragms. etc, and retained all of the 49-state jetting. The carbs I got were in great shape but I thoroughly...

    Is 5 Turns Out On Mixture Screws.......

    ....an excessive amount to you? I dunno but that seems to be the magic number for me. After a carb tear down and float level readjust (to 16mm on the nose!) and a 49-state needle swap this is where my '94 runs best at. All 4 carbs respond to screw turns and I get no hesitation or popping...

    Anyone Grind Their Shims?

    Since the carbs are off I might as well check the valves. Even though there is less than 16K miles it is still worth the look-see I guess. I know when I have done the valves on several of my Toyota engines with bucket shims I just measured them, found the culprits (usually tighter as the valves...

    Coasting Enrichers?

    Well, after digging into the carbs (again) I think I have narrowed down the problem(s) to: A---floats set to 12.5MM and, B---3 of the 4 coasting enrichers (air cut-off valves) are deteriorated. The floats are easy but the enrichers are another. Where can I get these puppies for less than...

    Are these a good deal?

    What's the Differecce Between Cal. and 49-State Throttle Plates?

    49-state carbs have #125 and Cal bikes have #130...what is the difference? Thanx, Bud

    Cal To 49 State jetting swap questions.

    I have a '94 "smogger" bike and have ALWAYS had shitty results whenever I tried to do any mods to the carbs. I have clocked barely more than 16K miles on it since I bought it new. I have always felt this is a pretty anemic bike compared to all of the other rave stories I read:confused2: This is...

    RWL Tires?

    What tire other than the K525's come recommended in raised white letter for the Max? I love the stock look but hate the price of the Qualifiers :( Thanx, Bud

    Camshaft Specs Anyone?

    Does anybody have or can link to the camshaft specs/valve timing specs? Is it true or is it not that the 49-state and the California engines have DIFFERENT camshaft lift/duration and centerline dimensions as well as valve timing specs? Thanx, Bud
