I have a stock (just finished re-building) 1978 KZ 650D SR. I was given K&N pods but don't know what the carb settings should be. Right now stock is 120 main, 25 pilot and 0.9 air. what should they be for pods and where can i get new jets... if needed? on the other hand what are the pros to pods other than the obvious easier on/off of carbs. Show me the true path fella's.

Ok, actually I'm thinking of making my own airbox as pods are expensive, stock airboxes won't fit my bike anymore and its something to do in the off-season. Any ideas? Also, I need to make it fit a 750 in a 650 frame. Also, any ideas for the proper airbox design? For cost I'm tempted to adapt some form of dirtbike type foam filter and oil it. Easy to clean, cheap to replace, just need to insure I have enough filter surface to pass enough air for the engine.
Get some 0.09" aluminum sheet, measure, cut, bend, weld seams, cutout intake boot holes, weld on a bung for the crank case breather.
Anyone done this before?
Ok, and pods or stock, if you have stock, put a K&N paper in the stock airbox, that'll flow a bit more, adjust your jetting and ride. I have pods because my stock airbox was toast, my tank mount makes a stock airbox impossible anyways, and pods were 32.00.
I've have some wind issues and jetting took forever to get to running reliably with decent power. So the moral is do what ever you want, its your bike and really, enjoying the ride is all that matters.
The rest of you can knock each other out, I'm going to get some paper and start sketching up some ideas.
