KZ 750 with pods and V&H jet question was created by Ituen
I'm rebuilding the Keihin carbs on my 82 KZ 750 with pod air filters and a Vance and Hines exhaust. What size jets should I use for this combo? (I will be tuning it on a dyno once I get my cylinder head back from LarryC).

I have an '80 750-4 with pods, 4-1 Kerker and GPZ cams. I was using 68 & 130 jets, which I think are two or three sizes up from stock. It was running way too lean with those, so I just ordered 72 and 140 today from Z1. I'm also planning on doing some mild porting, so I wanted the new jet sizes to account for that as well.

I'm probably better off purchasing a Dynojet Stage 1 & 3 jet kit and playing around with the jets while on the dyno.

The Dynojet Stage 1 & 3 kit (#2102) comes with 116, 122, 130 and 136 jets. I can buy other sizes if any of these jets don't work.

dyno jet jets are not the same size as keihin or mikuni so you cant go by that just set the carbs up according to the instructions and you should be good to go. for instance a 122 dj is the same as a 130 keihin and a 115 mikuni a 136 dj is the same as a 148 keihin and a 127.5 mikuni so as you can see there is quite a bit of difference.

I wasn't aware of the different sizes from different jet makers. Maybe I should just stick with Keihin jets.
