    anyone know what the stock main jet in the 85kxt is? i thought mine said 260 but now im not so sure. i recently put a dg head pipe on and i bought every main jet size from 270-340 and every one of them is too lean..... maybe my needle jet is too big not letting enough fuel through the main??? im going nuts! any help would be appreciated!

    I just bought a new main jet, and throttle valve from Bike bandit, I do not need them, interested by chance? You know, hell I got the whole carb minus the elbow on the cap, I'll sell it cheap with the new parts, say 40 bucks shipped.I did use it on my project, it is not new but good to use as a spare.
