This thing is stock except for a K&N filter and outerwear, and an HMF slip on exhaust (sport), what jets do you all recommend I get from the dealer to really get the most out of things?

Thanks...

Lid or no lid?

Will that really make any difference on a stock motor other than getting the filter dirtier quicker?

Currently it has the lid on it, but if its better to have it off, I might go that route as well.

yes it makes a difference.

with the lid I would try a K155. that's what I run with 4 ~ 1" holes in the lid but I run a stock filter ;)

lose the lid and start jetting with a 155 main and a 40 pilot. that should be fine on the pilot but you might need a 160 on the main.

im runnin a k&n filter/outerwears with a 165 main. i used to run a lid on it but when the weather started to get hotter it started poppin and sputterin real bad. so i decided to take off the lid and it ran MUCH better! i would to run with no lid, and maybe 160 or 165 main

155 and 40. Does anyone know what size jets come stock?

Is swapping the jets difficult at all?

148 main and 38 pilot are the stock sizes, and no it's not hard to do..;)

BTW I run a #40 pilot and think a #42 would work better.. most people use the #42

I just jeted an 05 the other day with those same mods. 40 or 42 pilot 160 main runs great. With the lid on
