I want to remove the airbox lid and take out the exhaust baffle and run it that way.
What size jets do I need for those of you running your bike like this?

Thank you,
Rick

I would just buy an aftermarket exhaust, if you ever wanted to go back to stock you will always have it.

What type of air filter do you have? I used a K&N, removed the lid and spark arrestor (only on the dunes), and it ran just fine. I didnt change the jets until I upgraded to a full YOSH pipe. I ran that way for almost a year.

It's stock...When I took the lid off my 450r it wouldn't run at all so I assumed the same would happen with the 400.

You know now that I think about it. The samething happens when I take the lid off of my 05 450R. It bone stock too. It boggs then it stalls right? Keep in mind I have not removed the spark arrestor so it me be getting to much air and being restricked with the arrestor. Just a thought. I'm interested to see what the resoltion is. GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!
