And if I toss on the stock exhaust, I will then be running rich as I would assume the exhaust is now more restricted with the stocker. So should the jet be shimmed up or down? And how would I be able to tell when I have it properly adjusted? FYI, my airbox has been opened up as well.   Thanks, Zack 1991 KLR650 "Buster" 1986 Concours -----Original Message----- [b]From:[/b] Fred Hink [mailto:moabmc@...] [b]Sent:[/b] Thursday, October 05, 2000 11:32 AM [b]To:[/b] KLR Owners Group; Zachariah Mully [b]Subject:[/b] Re: [DSN_klr650] Stock exhaust question ----- Original Message ----- [b]From:[/b] zmully@...
