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.

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?

Yep try it the way it comes first. They're usually setup for a stage one engine.
