Re: jet kit

If you do not have somebody exerpienced to walk you through it, it's best that you fork out some cash to have someone experienced do it.

Even if you do it correctly, odds are you will not have be able to tune it to its full potential given your bike's set-up, which means you wasted $$ on the jet kit.

Re: jet kit

SHOTOUT... Simple is a relative term. If you are mechanically inclined & have experience working on cycles then maybe it will be "simple" for you, but as previously posted it's not the install but the tuning that will require the expertise. I personally like to do as much as possible myself. I've burned myself, and I've been proud of myself. Specifically with jet kits; I have only installed one myself on my F4. No problems, BUT I was being coached by a friend who's a mechanic. What ever you do, GOOD LUCK! [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]

Re: jet kit

I have a factory Ti kit on my 750 and I started with the middle setting but I ended up having to drop the clip (secound slot from the bottom). I don't know if this helps being a 750. My 2 cents.....
