drestar Posted September 26, 2019 Hello i have a xr 600 1987 with dual carburetors, bigbore 102mm. with JE piston. RVS exhaust and akrapovic slowjet is 45, i'm looking for the best main jet setup for bigbore 132/132 132/135 132/138 135/135 138/138 please say the combination for the best power.

Fingers Posted September 27, 2019 What’s the advertised compression of that piston? Are you sure it was made (pin height) for an XR-600 (and not an XL or XR-650L). That will affect the compression greatly. I ask because if your compression is same as stock, or lower, then jetting will not be affected as much by the extra displacement. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drestar Posted September 27, 2019 Ik have a picture from the piston box. and yes it is for XR 600, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fingers Posted September 28, 2019 That’s a JE piston 10.8 compression. How did it run with 135/138? Usually on Euro XL 600 (PD-04) stock was 115/115 on LM and 118/118 on RM. It would seem to me 130 size and over would be very rich but both your plug photos seem lean. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drestar Posted September 28, 2019 Yeah i have JE piston 102mm bigbore. and the tuner did flow the cilinder head intake, stock main jets of XR 600 are 2x 122 . i have testing now 2x 125 . and i runs very wel, than testing 2x 132 .runs very wel with a little popping if i turn the gas off . than 135/138 it popping a little more with turn the gas off and ride very wel feel no different between these combinations .only popping more on the ride with turn the gas off with bigger main jets but why the spark plug looks so lean?

drestar Posted September 30, 2019 I have now 2x 150 main jets and the spark plug has a little more color. the bike runs normal and can take more maybe i must go up to 2x 160 jets, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
