too slow Posted July 21, 2016 Share Posted July 21, 2016 hi all, i have an 02 dt1215r that i have recently re-jetted, the carb from standard had a jet size of 240 and upped it to a 260 because i changed the exhaust tailpipe to an athena one, so was wondering if i should(if its even possible) adjust the oil pump to give a bit more oil/fuel mix. bike doesn't get thrashed or even given a hard time probably 6500rpm max so that it clears its throat, bike is only used for pottering round on sunny days like we are having at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Cynic Posted July 21, 2016 Moderator Share Posted July 21, 2016 Dont need to change anything for just a tailpipe. Tbh im surprised it runs if its stock with a 260. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

too slow Posted July 21, 2016 Author Share Posted July 21, 2016 runs and ticks over lovely on the 260 jet that i put in, got tiniest of flat spot on pulling away from standstill but i put that down to changing the gearing from 15/47(i think thats standard) to 16/44 and me not giving it a big handfull of revs as well, plug has a lovely colour to it as well when i took it out to look. just thought it might need some sort of adjustment seeing as the tailpipe looks pretty well straight through now and not like the "tin of spaghetti" that the exhaust fumes must find there way through to exit the standard one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
