I have been having trouble with my bike cutting out during fast take offs and then, it would smooth out, I saw on the forum where the cone filter would block the air holes on the carb, I frimmed the shoulder with a razor blade, but the bike still cut out, I did everything suggested here except take the filters off and see how it does, the problem was solved, I will try to trim out the part where the air jet is, if that don't work, where can I get some cone filters that will work, I have a 79 standard, Thanks Later.

Mike, that's a great deal, do you know if they have the inside shoulder that causes problems with our carbs. TIA. Later 'DogComment

Mike, I went to the thread link you provided, I don't know what my filters are, do the emgo filters have any special markings? Tia. Later 'DogComment

The EMGO's have a little bit of shoulder, but it doeesn't interfere with any air passages. Mine have no markings on them that I've ever noticed.Mike * Seattle * 82 F'n'XJ1100 *Comment

Hey Mike, Thanks again for the reply, When I took my filters off the bike ran super great, no stutter at any rpms, I have trimmed out the top air passage and the air jet passage with a razor blade, will try it today to see how it gos. Thanks. Later 'DogComment

Mike, the bike did the same thing, it stuttered the same way as before, I took then off and ran naked for about 10 miles, it never once stuttered. Later 'DogComment
