I had a sateg one done about 6 months ago but I still have popping issues.. they tuned it 3 times and still the same.. I had Rush pipes installed.

I am thing of re-doing the WHOLE thing with V&N pipes... what air filter system would be BEST? and the re-jetting? Any advice? I am tired of wasting time and moey...Lisa

 

sorry about the miss-spells... typing fast before my battery goes out! hehehe

 

I have the Vance&Hines straightshots,with Screamin Eagle air intake,and 180 45 jets.I very rarely get any carb pops.About the only time I get them is if I just jump on the bike and ride without a warm up.

 

I copy and pasted this from another thread. Not sure if you saw it or not.



Hey Golfgurl,
On my 1200, I went through that annoying popping after I did my slip-ons and rejet. It would snap-crackle-pop everytime on decel. I was running a 46 slow jet and a 190 main and thought that the popping was from a rich main jet. I took it to a local indy shop and the guy said its normally from a lean condition of the slow jet but could also come from a overly excessive rich condition. He also said that the less exhaust restriction you have, the more popping will occur. He said that open drag pipes are the worst.

Anyway, after he put in the 48 slow jet, almost all the popping went away. I still have some popping but its subtle and not annoying at all. It almost seems natural sounding to me. We also backed off the main to a 185 which had no effect on the popping issue, but was not necessary for my set-up. That was about 2500 miles ago and the other day, I decided to pull my plugs and see how things have been burning. I kinda expected to see some carbon build-up on the electrode and insulator but was surprised at how clean and almost new they looked. No residue at all.

I know the 883 uses slightly smaller jets, but you may try bumping your slow jet up to the next size. Good luck.

just ge the whole kit on the bike from V&H... just did a fuel pack, short shots, and intake on a train... just conect everything and runs TOPS! i realize you got jets though so they will tell you exactly what jet kit you will need to run and it will be golden!

 

My 2000 1200-C would do that sometimes with SE air and Pythone slip ons, I went from a 45 pilot to a 47 and all was good...
