First off, reading someone's entire post is a good thing, that way you don't spend 20 minutes creating a post to state something that was already stated. My bad. Anywho, the following explanation is for those who don't quite understand the relationship between jets when looking at a table with Mikuni jets listed. quote:
ORIGINAL: Rat have any flow specs on these jets? I know that the DJ jets flow much differently then the other jets and they work the best in conjuction with the DJ jet needle. The Mikuni Jets are not stamped by their orifice diameter. They are stamped according to their flow rate of fuel in cc per minute. Notice how Mikuni does not have constant increments in jet sizes when compared to DJ or Keihin? The same is true in reverse; if Mikuni jets were listed in constants of 150, 150.5, 160, 160.5, etc...the corresponding jets from DJ or Keihin would be listed in variable increments. Check out http://faq.f650.com/FAQS/JetKitFAQ.htm for an example of the above. So if you look at a 200 Keihin, for example, then we can make the following observations: Orifice Size: 0.0780 Flow Rate: 166.9 CCs Fuel Per Minute Comparable Jets: DJ 178, Mikuni 167.5 The correct Mikuni Jet would be labeled as a 166.9, but they don't make that specific size. If you were able to calculate your specific airflow rates, how much fuel you would need, and it came out to 166.9 CCs FPM, you would have to settle with .6 more CCs FPM because the nearest jet available with a comparable flow rate would be a 167.5. Kind of confusing but once you understand how it all runs together, it's quite easy.
