Jetting a '97 for altitude, BMC filter and pipe

rangemaster · 07-24-2008, 08:00 PM

Hi Folks.
I live at 5500 ft. elevation and a Sunday morning ride can take me to 8000.
The bike has a BMC air filter and a D&D can with a Staintune baffle to appease the neighbors. It pops on de-acceleration every so often so I'm thinkin' it needs a little something in the jetting dept. So who makes the best jet kit?
I can get a hold of a DYNO JET kit but am checking with you all here to see if there are any other/better options.
Thanks for your help.

I have a stock (pretty dirty too) air filter and a TBR stainless slip on.

Mine crackles and pops on decel, too - and I never get above 2500 feet. I think that it might be a "feature" of the bike.

Yep, I have a BMC filter and a TBR slipon also. I live in Tucson which is 2500ft and my bike also crackles and pops on decel. I like how it sounds personally but wouldnt mind making sure I dont need it to get rejetted now.
