Carb jetting baseline

[nateridesbikes]

CB360
K&N Pods
Headers with 3in baffles


Can you recommend some jets that would give me a good baseline to start tuning at? This will be my first time messing with tuning carbs and im not real sure where to start when it comes to the actual jet sizing. Also worth noting, i know people saying tuning with pods is hard but the pods are staying. If you feel like the exhaust situation should be improved before tuning let me know.


Thanks!


edit: i have read the carb theory 101 thread. i understand the concepts i just dont want to end up buying jets that are going to be useless to me.

search through my posts or all/any 360 jetting questions
112 secondary mains, stock pilot and primary mains
air corrector jets if you have screw in type ($12.50 from me, they work)
adjust float level to 19.5~20mm
pipes are too short, they need to end around rear footrest area (about 8~10" longer)

thank you sir!

The stock controls are going back on so the exhaust situation will be taken care off. As of now the pipes would run into my rearsets and i just never got around to making new pipes.

Another question, how on earth do i know which specific jet to buy? Every site has a handful of different mikuni jets. I am 99% sure mine are screw in, its been awhile sense ive had them off the bike.

Stock carbs are CV Kei-Hin.
I used Jets-R-Us
They have got expensive since I last bought jets

the carbs on my bike have mikuni stamped on them

Post a pic, they are probably VM30 or 32.
Jet sizes are completely different to Kei-Hin but there is a lot of information on here. Going to take a while to sort through all the VM stuff though

 

[nateridesbikes]

roger that. Ill get some pics asap. Thanks again for the assistance.

 

[nateridesbikes]

I must have been hallucinating because the carbs deff have a big keihin stamped on the side of them.

 

[crazypj]

LOL ;D
Wishful thinking, reading too many posts saying stock carbs are crap.
With pods, you still need air correctors

 

[nateridesbikes]

So about these air correctors...

Would the 360 carbs be screw in type? Also, how do i go about getting a couple from you?

Again, thanks for the help.

I can make them or modify carbs. Don't know if you have screw in type, 360 uses screw in and press in.
Originally I was going to work out a way to remove press in type and tap carb body, but, if it's cleaned out careful it's possible to modify push in type
