Or just send your carbs to PJ and have him work some magic on them and run K&N filters.
that was going to be my suggestion too. It's what I did.deviant said:Or just send your carbs to PJ and have him work some magic on them and run K&N filters.

LiveStoked said:The exhaust I planned on building was going to run down and out the sides by the back tire, almost like Buell style, but I guess that's a bad idea then? What is the reason for that? What exhaust do you recommend? What do you recommend for mufflers?

You could do that if you made internal piping inside a box (like Buell and some sport bikes) the total length is the important bit, not how it's packaged.
They work out tuned length then fit internal plates and tubes to get best overall performance.
The reason Ducati 'invented' the underseat exhaust was probably styling but the increase in length helped power output. The computer technology and programs just weren't available in the 80's which is why they can now use short system that aids aerodynamics, even though it looks bulky as hell (and the stock Buell weighs 'a ton' ;D )

Just called them to complain and now it's working real good :
Anyway, basically, you can't jet out the problems with stock carbs.
When jetted correctly for top end (107.5~125 secondary main jet) it gets so rich at transition (around 4,500rpm) it may cut out when you get to 6~7,000rpm
You can't use the various fixes used for 2 jet slide carbs posted all over.
I've spent literally years messing with various things and different circuits to find out what happens when, it all has to be done on rpm not throttle position with CV carbs
