I got my pilot and main jets, does anyone have a listing or some suggestions to change them out, i have my carbs sunk before i dismantled it, i want to change the jets in it but don't want to eff it up
 
If you have not already removed the carbs from the sled:
- Remove air box.
- Uncouple wireing for TORS, TPS and Electric carb heaters.
- Remove throttle and chocke wires.
- Loosen the clamps at the carb boots.
- Take the carbs off the boots.
- Remove the water lines, having a pair of hose pliers comes in handy in preventing coolant spill.
- With the carb rack on the workbench, take off the carb float bowls at the bottom of the carbs.
- You will now have good access to the mains and pilot jets.
- The Pilot jets will have 17.5 stamped on them (if stock that is)
- The main jets will have 135 stamped on them (if stock)
- The jets with 75 stamped on them are the power jets, leave them alone.
- When tighten the new jets be careful not to over tighten.
- Reassemble.

When you have the carb bowls off you may also measure the float height while at it. Stock float height is 13 millimeter, adjustment can be made between 11-15 millimeter according to the book. The most important is that all 4 floats measures the same and are complety level.

I would recommend a complete carb clean and a carb syncronization for the best possible performance of you sled, but that will require some more work, not difficult at all to do, only takes more time.

If you need the RX-1 Service Manual PM me your email address.
