I have an 86 FXRS. It runs great, but i noticed it is also running lean since the new pipes were added. I have been looking for a jet kit for the OEM carb with no luck. Can anyone help me where I can find one, or give advise of a reasonably priced carb upgrade?

I'm running the OEM butterfly on an '86 FXRS with no problems. It wasn't a bad carb, just misunderstood :-) Yeah, the CVs are a much better option. But my sled is close to the way it rolled out of the showroom and altering it now would be almost criminal. YMMV.
