How to tell if a rejet kit has been installed??

divingtigger · July 21st, 2009, 06:33 AM

I know this sounds like a dumb question but, how can you tell if the bike has been rejetted?? I bought mine from an insurance auction, so I didn't get to talk to the previous owner, nor have I had the bike running yet. Was going to shim the needles while I have it all apart, but I want to make sure it is something that I'll need to do first. Bike had a "Hustler" decal on the side so I really don't know. Any one have pics of the stock ones next to the aftermarket ones??

Thanks

If the caps are off the idle mix screws, thats probably a good sign. If you are gonna open the carbs up, just cause you want to....... then if the needles have a C-clip, it has a jet kit.

You should ride the bike first and then decide whether you think the needles need to be shimmed or not - it doesnt need to be done on all bikes.

At least the previous owner was classy.
