Default Carbed Fatboy Sputtering

My 04 Fatboy is sputtering and periodically stalling at lights since I put baffles in my pipes. The pipes are Samson Street Sweepers and they ran great for years without baffles. I posted here about having to re-jet with the baffles and most said that I don't have to. Does anyone know what # jets I should be using with these pipes and Samson baffles? Thanks...J

46 pilot 185 main, 1 1/2 turns on the screw will get you close. Try the screw first before diving in the carb. Much tighter than 3/4 turns from lightly bottomed, and you'll need a smaller pilot. If you were on the slightly richer side before baffles, you are now definitly too rich.
