    Ok I have 4 pods on my carbs and the newest addition is a mac 4-1 exhuast system. Im not sure of the jet settings from the PO. What size jets should I put in this thing and where can I get them?

    82 Yics 650

    I also could use a link or 2 on a guage setup for syncing and a colortune plug. This is my first carb sync I hope I can get It done right.

    It's all dependent on your exact motor. Meaning, YOUR bike and only your bike will have certain jets.

    If you can find another member with pods and the mac 4-1, they may be able to get you a baseline. But generally, it's all up to your bike.

    Go to the FAQ Suggestions section and you can find the sync info you need. As for colortune, there are manuals online somewhere. Google it :)

    I guess I should have rephrased that a little I need a link to buy the guage pod and a color tune plug. :)

    well hell with it I think Ill just leave the carb jets alone for know and see how It performs without rejetting

    So does that mean you havent cleaned up your carbs yet? Should probably clean em up and write down all your jet and needle numbers
