Main - 108
Slow - 38
Air - 200
Slow Air - 150

By the way - this site has the service manual for download.  That document is the source of this info (page 1-2).

Past bikes - Honda: SL350, CX650C, CB900C, CB1000C, CM450A; Kawasaki: several 1972 750 H2's; Suzuki: TC90J.

Bikes I want: CX650ED, a mid-sized japanese V-twin with ABS.

I converted my exhaust to an open pipe and just need to figure out what jets to order. The guy I am working with said stock plus 2 sizes. Guess I will need 115 and 120s. Not sure they make 118?

I have a set of 115s also, and I believe they make a 117.5. You may or may not need to go much bigger then stock, you will have to run it and see. I have heard of several people swapping to the K/F style roundtop carbs and getting much better performance then the stock A carbs.

A 108 plus two sizes is a 112.

99101-GHB-1080 (is a 108)
99101-GHB-1120 (is a 112)

Sizes - 108, 110, 112, 115, 118, 120, etc.

Do they go in 2s or 2.5s, either way, if you need a set of 115s let me know, I may have a set of 110s also, would have to check.

Usually, from what I've seen in the past, the jets are sized by 2's and 3's.

110 + 2 = 112
next size is 112 + 3 = 115
next size is 115 + 3 = 118
next size is 118 + 2 + 120.

Don't know why - just what I've seen.
