Hey guys. I just ordered the JD jetting kit for my 2002 KX 250. I noticed that it only came with one pilot jet, a #45 (stock is #55)., so I ordered a #52, 50, and 48 just in case. My pilot is way to rich so I think I'll prolly just end up using the recommended #45.
Anyways, the person I talked to said that all the jets were genuine Keihin jets, all except for the 2 needles that came with it, which were James Dean's special tapered needles or whatever. My question is this: do you guys even bother using those modified needles? I'd rather just stick to the stock needle (and play around with clip positition if need be) and only use the slow & main jets in the kit.
Is this a bad idea? Do I have to use the JD needles if I'm gonna use the main & slow jets in this kit? I am putting on a PC pipe/silencer and I just wanna jet it right afterwards, and I don't wanna make things even more complicated by having to put in a new needle.
Thanks for any info!
