Lead | |

I've seen this dozens of times, and think I even printed it out once, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. Can someone post this again please?
Thanks www.homemadehonda.com |

if a 130 jet =1.3mm
then the closest inch drill sizes are 105 jet - #59 drill (actual 1.04mm) 110 jet - #57 drill (actual 1.09mm) 115 jet - #56 drill (actual 1.18mm) 120 jet - 3/64 drill (actual 1.19mm) 125 jet- no close equivalent 130 jet - #55 drill (actual 1.32mm) |

So these are just a hole straight through? I thought there might be a little bit of a taper to them.
If they are a straight shot then I'm gonna drill some 110's I have. Thanks, Steve |

Technically, I believe they are tapered. But many guys for many years have been drilling them out and their bikes are running great.

Re: taper | ||

When you drill them, you have to hold the drill bit in a pin vise rather than a drill press or you run the risk of making them over sized. Also, the finish is pretty rough compared to a factory reamed jet.
Ya know, in my experience, it's better to just buy the jet you need. I mean they're only $3 or $4 bucks each. |

Ah , a rough surface is never good for flow , I hadn't thought
about that one . With that in mind I will just get new ones . But I'm thinkin drill out some used ones just for a comparison . Won't lose anything by trying . Kenny Walk your own path , let others walk theirs .
