Hello guys,

I have now some work on the engine and I am breakin' in.

I have port&polished head, high compression pistons (stock bore) and TPUSA 813s cams. I am using a good 2in1 exhaust system.

The jetting is as follows:

pilots 22.5
air screws: 3/4~1 turns from closed
needles 97
needle e-clip: middle position (out of 5)
main jets 142.5

I am currently using UNI foam pod filters UP4229

I have activated accel pumps (using leanest nozzle #50) but I haven't still tested WOT since I am breakin in the motor.

I would like to know your configuration and your experience with the accelerator pumps activated on these motors.

Thanks a lot.

BTW here's a photo of my bike:

that's a damn fine bike! more pics!

Your jetting sounds close to mine, you might benefit from moving the needle clip up a postion or 2 (to make it leaner). That helped mine. I'm running the pumps too.

you are real close like sweat said you may or may not need to move the niddle lean one slot.As far as the pumps go you need them to come in at 1/4 throttle and end at 3/4 throttle.make sure the spray is dead on the center of the niddle niddle. All so check the slides at wot they should be dead even with the top of the bore and no highher or lower you can adj that with the stop screws .Mine where way off when i got them.

Thanks Sweat.

Thanks Mike.

I will do some testing and report. I would like to use this post for us owner of HSR42mm. 'Cause I believe we are a few. So sharing info is useful.

Here some today's photos for you Sweat. Bike is not super-clean as in the other photo.

There are lots of nice details on that bike. I really like the tach/gauge setup and the sidecovers.

Must admit I like the HSR42's, but have been running the FCR39's for the last six months and have decided to stick with the FCR's so if anybody wants a set of 42's let me know

Don't forget I'm in Australia

Hi
I have 2005 Speedmaster with Mikuni Screaming Eagle (HSR) carbs.
I try to tune them. Setup on two turns out. I read that it should start rough when i turn it too far out or in.
When i screw it in it dies what i assume is correct.
But I can take out the crew completely and bike still runs smooth.
idle 1300RPM. And popping on deceleration. What are your suggestions?

If they came off a hd you have to big of pillot jets in them and main jets are more then likely to big.
