jet sizes

[laneknaack]

Hey all, I have been working on my 79 xs650 for the past two years now. I have replaced everything but the front half of the frame and the engine. last thing is im trying to jet my carbs and cannot for the life of me figure out the right mixture of pilot and main. im running a set of xs air pods with the mikes xs pwk carbs. my exhaust is short ending at my mid controls with the custom kit straight pipes. and i live in reno nv at 4500 ft. right now i have the 40 for pilot and the main at 122. thanks for any help offered.

The best advice I can give you is to ditch those carbs, they're junk. They're very poorly made, badly machined inside, so numerous problems have been reported with them. You may never get them to work right.
