My tuning journey


  • My current ride is an 07 Spirit vt750c2. I picked her up last summer. Right now she has between 17k and 18k miles. I absolutely love riding this bike. Decided Im going to customize her to my liking. As of today I haven't riden her in almost 4 weeks and to be honest, its starting to bother me. Anyway, I have installed open exhaust and v stack. Couple other shiny cosmetics that dont apply to this. 

    Took the carb off, took it apart and cleaned it, used the performance kit from tjbc. Started with the 50 pilot jet and 148 main. Double shim on the needle. Reinstall carb and she'll only idle with the enrichment value pulled out. Running lean, cool. 

    Today I have time to work on it. Switch out the 50 pilot for the 55. Still will only idle with enrichment valve pulled out. So now im going to take the carb off again, clean everything again, and check the float height this time. When I get paid Thursday I'll probably buy some new spark plugs just to have them.

    Anyway, thats where im at right now. If anyone has any suggestions im open to them. Ill post on here again and hopefully she'll be idling properly.
