    got the bassani on my 200x, now jetting???

    hey guys, i got the pipe on my wheeler, i did a plug chop and its running lean. how many jet sizes do you think i should go up for the winter weather? plus i am debating on taking the airbox lid off since it has a k&n filter. will i see any gain in taking the lid off? thanks

    if its a stock bike other that the pipe it will prolly have a 110 main depending on the year. buy a 112 and a 115 that will prolly cover it. it can be a bit of messing around to get it just right but its worth it. dont forget about the needle position and pilot too.

    i notice a bit of a difference with the lid off in the upper rpm range, but check your plug again it may throw off your jetting again.

    i would start by going up one size.....only adjust one thing at a time and keep rechecking.....i have an 83 with a bassani...i ended up with the stock jet and just adjusted the needle 2 notch's but every engine will be different...good luck and be patient...sounds great eh?

    the pipe sounds awesome!! and i was thinkin it might need a few sizes bigger since its going to be driven in winter weather with the airbix lid off. maybe i'll buy one the 1st size bigger, then maybe one 3 or 4 sizes bigger for winter

    now im kinda thinking a few little mods would be fun on this trike. maybe a cam and a 10.25:1 piston? you can run pump gas on 10.25:1 right? also, is a xr 200 cam a reasonable upgrade? or would a web cam or some other aftermarket be a better option. thanks

    26ml carb and intake from a mid 80,s xr200r works really good with a bassani. the pipe adds a good low and mid range torque curve and the bigger carb adds to the mid and top end. pretty good bolt on's in my books there's a good thread on this subject.

    Might be easier to jet with a air box lid

    ok so i put the 115 in and i did a plug chop. the plug is pitch black. im htinkin the 115 is too rich. i bet the 112 will be perfect. i left the airbox lid on for now because my filter could use a recleaning plus some oik and i dont have that right now
