Main Jet changes

Post by Necioperez »

Do you think changing the jets on a RH50 to a bigger size would add alot more speed?

not without other modifications.
i good place to start would be to see if its deristricted, and adding a medium windscreen., after that switch out to sliders from rollers, and from there exhaust/airfilter/ and carb tuning.

^^^ This!

I have a RH50 as well and have done quite a bit of modification without actually going the way of the BBK. You do get more range but more so in the mid-range after these types of mods.

I would say if you change the main jet alone you would most likely just be running rich but it would not provide more power until you add a performance exhaust with an expansion chamber. The cheapest way for more range on the top end would probably be a windscreen, and more mid would be the roller/exhaust/filter swap & tuning.

Thanks guys. I also think I would be using a lot more fuel for almost no difference of speed..
