OK Folks. This should be the last post for this Pilot for now! I was able to dial-in the carburetor completely and now this machine is an absolute screaming beast!
To read how I finalized the tune, check out my Wideband tuning thread here:
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=18191Keihin PWK39 carb off a KTM
Pilot jet: 42
Air screw: 1.25
Throttle slide: #7
Jet Needle: EEF
Clip position: Middle (May briefly try +1 richer next time)
Main jet: 170
With this setup, the machine pulls wheelies on asphalt, pulls like a freight train out of corners and up hills, and reaches 7800 rpm on a
WOT (Wide Open Throttle) straight. EGT never goes over 1200 and runs more like 1050 at WOT (Wide Open Throttle).
One of the nice things which I don't mind and really like about this setup is - the pilot circuit is still just a whee tad bit on the rich side. I can tell by the way the
Engine ever so slightly loads up on a long down-hill deceleration. After 10 seconds of coasting downhill, it takes a slightly extra blip of the throttle to clear the minute amount of loaded up fuel from the closed throttle circuits. I like this. REALLY like it in fact. On throttle shut its injesting more fuel than needed which is perfect when coming off a high throttle run. Just what the Engine needs to cool itself down.
