Was wondering if anyone could give some advice. I have a 00 FXDX and running v&h short shots with no baffels and a arlen ness big sucker intake. Bike runs fine but has a small cough every now and then. Did not change any jets but I know that they need to be. Anyone running close to the same that can advise on what size jets would be best?

 

Never done a carb rejet by myself; got some interesting links for you, though:

46 slow,185 or 190 main .don't forget to adjust the mixture screw.If you wnt to run better under 3500rpm,get a pair of Khromewerks drag pipe baffles.will still be loud,but will run much better.

 

Put two #4 washers under the needle and it should take care of the little cough that is caused by a real lean spot in the needle. moving the needle up lets a bit more fuel in when at light throttle conditions which is where the coughing was happening in my experience with an 02. Worked good for me.

 

Good article in american iron mag this month all about weather to rejet or not.

 

+1 on the article in the American Iron Magazine. IMHO Joe Minton has his all in one sock, good info from him, I trust him. That's the May issue.

 

Call V&H they will give you the correct jet numbers based on your info.

 

I have a question i have a 1998 fxdl with a big sucker intake and a thunder header im gonna be installing a ev27 cam. What jetting should i use? Any help would be appreciated
