First. I searched and found no definitive answer to what I wanted to know..
Secondly, other than trial and error (which normally ends with said error upon my poor bike), how did the lot of you motorcycle afficianadoes first learn to work confidently on your bikes engine. Because after browsing this forum index for the past 6 months, I realize I have alot to learn, including why a "jet kit" can aid in better preformance. This is all new to me as I have never worked on cars b4 either. I am saying this, becasue compared to most of you, I am cluless when it comes to the basics of engine work, although enthusiastic about learning. I have recently picked up a "mechanics for dummies" and hope it will give me more of an insight on what I plan on getting into.
And finally to the main question... In FL, should I get a jet kit or not. I have had my eyes on Ivans stage 1, but latley some local mechanics say not to. Apparently, I will have to constantly adjust the carbs afterwards. I know lots of you guys have your bikes jetted down here in FL, and wanted to know what you thought.
Any suggestions on either topic would be great.
Thanks KR!
