    One thing Cody & I noticed w/ my kit... the jet numbers in the Dynajet kit are a lot larger than Mikunis. Not the same...

      Yeah, DJ jets are numbered by the measurement of the hole, and Mikunis are by the flow rate.
      Ich habe dich nicht gefragt.

        In case anyone is interested, I decided not to install the Dynojet kit in my 79 standard. If anyone is interested, I listed it on eBay tonight starting at 20 bucks.

          Went on a nice long ride today. Ran a little over 250 miles. Gas mileage has improved greatly. Went from 31 MPG to a little over 41 Mpg. That is with a mix of back road driving and highway. If this keeps up it was well worth installing the Dynojet kit in my opinion.

              That's great, Ozz!

              I just got in from the Talimena ride. Logged just over 900 miles this weekend. Averaged between 38-40, up from 30-32. Big improvement... and ran great.

              It's definitely the ticket. Saw improvement in the way it ran & idled by setting it up the way the directions instructed for a stock, Stage 1 setup(needles in the #2 notch)... but didn't see the mpg improvement until I lowered the needles to the #1 notch.

              Some have tried that, but it was too lean...
              Luckily, for me it was the ticket.

              At a +8 mpg increase... it will pay for itself pretty soon.

                Hey Bob,

                I was waiting for your call this afternoon. What happened, get homesick?

                I bet you were freezing your a$$ off by the time you got here.

                How was the run?
