Hello guys,
I am gradually as time goes by very close to finally getting my RE back on the road. My RE is not Taxed, Insured, or Mot'ed. Which means I can't ride it on the road, so I can't do the required plug chops. So I am sending it to a dyno to have the final set up of the carb done there, and also Mot'ed at the same place. Otherwise I would have done the plug chop method.
What I need to know is, what is the optimum air/fuel ratio for the air cooled engine of a 2004 RE500 Bullet 65? I thought it was 10:1? I'm not 100% sure?
Also what jets do you think I shall need to cover the changes? I have main jets 180,185, 190,200. I have pilot jets 25, 27.5, 30. I have needle jets P4, P6.
My bike has Mikuni TM32 card, K&N small pod filter, 1950's high trials exhaust, compression of 135psi. Elevation at sea level.
Is there any general advice you guys would give me to advise the dyno guys?
