Anybody know the upjet sizes for running k&n's with pipes with next to no baffle? Want to run it rich so I don't melt the pistons.

Cheers
Fergie

You should do 2 things, 1st add the year and model info to your user profile signature so it will show up with each post. This will help everyone give you the response you want.
Then second if you go here; www.kawasaki.com/DefaultFrame.aspx?strCo.../VICHOOSEVEHICLE.ASP
Fill in the info for your bike it will come back with the parts diagram and list. It should show you the stock jetting for your bike, I believe it will be 117 main jets in the stock BS34 carbs. I run 122.5 mains in my 1000 with the same carbs and a 4-1 Vance and Hines. I also upped the stock pilot jets to 40's. Each bike and conditions are a bit different. You may find 127 mains suitable.

Cheers Motor Head. Will edit my profile once I get on a big computer type thing. Tend to do this from iPhone at work so as to keep mrs Fergie off my case. Lol.
