New pipes gonna hurt without jetting?
My 04 XL122C has a screaming eagle stage I kit and has SEII's on it. It's been jetted for that set up. My short shots got in today, how off is the jetting going to be? Am I going to hurt anything by putting them on and riding it till i can get it to the dyno? That'll probabally be 2 or 3 weeks.
thanks Josh |

You should be ok until you can get it on the dyno.

Re: New pipes gonna hurt without jetting?
if its been jetted for the SEII's you should be good to go till you get it on the DYNO it may need 1 up in the main jet and 1 shim under the needle, but the dyno AFR will show by how much post your sheet when its done

Re: New pipes gonna hurt without jetting?
Will the dyno be worth it? I always jet my dirtbikes myself but my sportster runs perfect, I want it to be spot on again and am not sure how close i can get it doing it myself.

Re: New pipes gonna hurt without jetting?
as long as you do not use a kit you will be fine.
you may just get away with 1 up in the main just to be safe as the short shots will flow better. On my 883 i had pilot 45 but needed a 46, and a 180main and 1 shim under the needle would run all day at 90-100 was just a shy lean at bottom end. Remember altitude can alter your jetting as well
