standard jet is a 53.

Are you running an aftermarket exhaust aswell?

check the jetting guide to see how much you should be upjetting by.

just derestricting it i would put in a 55 jet as it runs slightly lean otherwise, so make room for this aswell when calculating what you will need.

order a jet set for it, start by over jetting around 6 over what your calculations say, and then plug chop, working your way down till the sparkplug is a brownish colour.
