If you don't put a larger main jet you will hole the pistons. He took it to a shop where they put on the pipes and added a thunderjet which is a midrange device drilled into a perfectly good new S&S E carb . now they have him rich on the mid range device to make up for too small a main.The shop owner knows his stuff but has all younger mechanics . He had to test it out after picking up the bike and go back for more changes. Least they could have done was a test ride. He doesn't listen to reason [or until the next guy gets to him]. He lives too far for me to help him . I can only advise but that doesn't mean he will listen . The pipes he took off where black and heat wrapped to unrestrictive mufflers . Now it has shiny new chrome pipes . Except one fell off on Rt 80 and was crushed by a truck. I told him by phone to have at least two mounting points. Main thing is he is very happy and I got a new roof plus a basket case 73 XLH in trade. My friend who ,lives closer tries to help him but only gets through until he talks to someone else usually convincing him something to spend money . Apparently his second set of new pipes are on order.All in all it was a win /win deal for us both.He is putting alot of miles on it .
