Lean? was created by Mikesz28lt1
Just installed a vance and hines exhaust, emgo pods, and the dynojet stage 3 kit. I installed the 165 main jets. The bike runs great from idle to 7500 with the baffle installed, and to 6500 without it. After that it has a bad miss. Does this sound like it is running lean? The pipes have allready started changing colors after 50 miles. If it is lean does anyone have a suggestion on what to bump the jets up to? Thanks in advance.

Oh yeah, by the way the bike is an '82 1000 LTD, stock except what is listed.

The spark plugs will tell you if it's lean. Do a plug chop at high rpms and if the plugs are white you're lean.

165 main jets are way to big. No stock Z with a pipe, uses jets that big. Try something around 117.5 and see what happens.................
