Jet kit now or later?

[MEngineer]

I'm finally getting around to finishing up the last odds and ends I need to finally ride my Katana. A year ago when I bought the bike I rebuilt the carbs and it actually started!

Now my question is to whether I should do a jet kit now or later? I have bought a post 4-1 and plan on either getting a Scorpion can or hopefully run the new can that GSXFJim is having made. Because of this I think I should get the jet kit and install it now.

Either way since they have been sitting a year, without gas in them on the workbench, I figure it would be a good idea to give them a once over.

Thanks!

What would be the benefit of waiting?

I'm with Arsenic. If they're setting on you bench and you're going into them regardless, I too see no reason not to.

Seriously you need to ask?

[KAT TOY]

go for it. I'm glad I installed my FP kit. mileage actually went UP a little.

My friends bike is jetted. Mine is not. Big difference.

These are the responses I figured I would be getting.

Is the 750 kit the same as the 600 kit?

I've found this for 93-97, but I think all the carbs 89-97 are the same?

Then there is the website?

I also think I'm going to buy some other parts for the carbs when I get into them just to make sure they're in top shape.

Arsenic, what grit media do you use to blast the carbs that you rebuild? Then you clear coat them, right?

[arsenic]

No, the 600 and 750 kits are not even close to the same. 80 grit glass bead. I clear coat anything that's is steel, aluminum I do not. I just use rustoleum. For a 600, 90-97 are the same, 88-89 are different. The reason there are two kits is because the cams changed. But they changed with the 1992 engine, not 1993. Either 90-92 or 93-97 600 kits work the same.

Thanks. Buy this one for "93-97" then? Just confirming. Unless you have a source or another suggestion. Also Bikebandit for misc inside pieces like the rubber stoppers?

That's a good price. The place I buy FP kits from is only a matter of cents cheaper. I don't remember if they offer free shipping. Either way, that's a good price. Yes, I buy all the gaskets and what not from BikeBandit.
