I am running the 700 cc pistons in my xs with custom pipes and pods. I am going to get Mikuni Vm36's anyone have this on one of their bikes. I am looking to find out what size slide and jets you are running. I need a base to start with.

per the carb guide
Needle jet: 159 series, P5 or P6
Needle: 6F9
Pilot Jet: VM22/210 series, sizes 20-25
Main Jet: 4/042 series, sizes 180-200

Should be pretty close.

I'm running VM36's short straight pipes, pods on a 750 motor.
Needle jet: 159 P6
Needle: 6F9
Pilot Jet: VM22/210 25
Main Jet: 4/042 series, 190
