Re: Need help with jetting

I wish I had that You-Tube video two years ago when I re-jetted my DRZ400S
That is an excellent video, however, keep in mind it is featuring the Mikuni BSR36 carb found on the S model. Your carb should be the Keihn and is a lot different. I don't have any experience with those carbs so I won't be much help...I do know that on the S model I find it impossible to turn the carb enough to remove the bowl on the bike. I just "pop" the whole carb off everytime I need to work on it.
You should have enough resources now to take on the project...just jump in there and do it!! BTW...XRNUT is right about those bowl screws...I would definately have a set of Allen head replacement screws waiting because you WILL strip out the head of at least one screw if they haven't been previously removed.
