Hello I putting a new intake arlin ness stage 1 and vance and hine short exaust I was curious if anyone knows what a good starting point for main and pilot jet is ? 1996 wide glide .
I belive I have 190 as main in their now and 48 just got this carb in my other one is all stripped out so I put that one aside for rebuilding at somepoint anyways back on topic not sure where to start and I did set the float per manual too about 11. Mm thanks guys. I'm not looking for exact just a good starting point.
Take a gander at the "dynojet" website, for jetting advice. www.dynojet.com
A starting point?
160 main*
Dynojet emulsion tube (this is important.)
Mixture screw 3 full turns out
Thunder slide ported via Dynojet supplied drill bit
Stock pilot jet (45?) I don't remember as it's been 23 years since I jetted my FXD in 1995.
Dynojet supplied jet needle w/circlip in center position.
Doing all these changes will make your bike a "different" bike.
Just get the whole kit and be done with it.
* This was done before ethanol was added to our gasoline, so jetting may be fatter now.

thanks is the kit on that site? Where do I go about that kind of kit what is it called and no I do not belive 45 is the stock seeing how u and me both no how lean these come stock
Did u say you have a mikuni carb, or do you have a CV carb? Either way I use the Yost power tube in all my carbs. The thunder slide is good to add in the CV carb along with the Yost emulsion tube. (power tube)
If you have a 190 in there now that should be plenty big enuf in a 80".
Is it running rich now or is the exhaust clean?
