The Crucial Role of Pilot Jetting for V-Twins
The pilot jet is responsible for the fuel mixture from idle up to roughly one-quarter throttle. If your V-twin feels sluggish off the line, or has an inconsistent idle, adjusting the pilot jet size is often the first step in troubleshooting. These #35 bleed pilot jets provide a valuable option for enriching the low-end mixture, which can be necessary after modifications like an open air cleaner or performance exhaust. Ensure your Harley or Indian V-twin runs its best with the right Mikuni components.
