have you blocked the air correctors ?
if not, block them and try 110's
there's some needles from another bike that are reputed to work quite well, but i've forgotten which..

Re: Ram Air
anyone got any other ideas for ram air kits? seems like these ams ones are more trouble than they're worth?
I do 700 miles a week in all weathers including snow, that's roughly 35,000 miles a year, and some weekend warrior biker has the nerve to get out of his Audi at work to tell me to I was riding far too fast in the wet (over taking at 50... fast eh?).

Re: Ram Air
Rmkd [Roger middleton does a nice ram air box] or the kit one is ok.
saltire88 if you block the air correctors and use the dyno jet needles on the top clip then start with 108 kein jets it shouldnt be too far away.But will always run rich in the mid range or if you have open air correctors then try 134 mains or there about and see how you get on.Im gonna try some R1 needles when I have enough cash for more dyno time.would be good to see your print out?

Re: Ram Air
does anyone have any experience with the BDK system? i prefere the intake hidden under the nose as it doesnt spoil the beauty of the bike!
What needles etc would you suggest on a stock motor with full system,ramair and stick coils?

Ended up running 115 jets with Dyno jet needles on the first click.
