Hello all.

Thanks Mark for getting the forums back up and running!

I will be moving my 1973 RD 350 out west to Albuquerque NM. That just over a mile higher than my current elevation.

Current Setup:
Chuck Q Super Tune Stage 1 porting and head work
YZ125 reeds
Chuck Q Boost bottle & manifolds
Replacement VM28 round slide carbs
   2.0 air jet
   169-P2 needle jet milled 1.5 mm
   37.5 Pilot
   210 Main
   ? jet needle
Y-boot with Uni filter
Spec 2 F1 Race pipes
PowerDynamo (MZB) static CDI ignition

Bike runs nice at my elevation, but will need some changes to work at 6000+ ft elevation.

Will I just need to down 2-3 sized on the main, maybe down 1 on the pilot, and move the clip 1 notch up?

Looking for a good starting point and advice.

Thanks for any help, and if you are near Albuquerque, message me. I have space and will know the roads soon.

I'm in Rio Rancho. One main jet should do it, maybe one size pilot and will find out if you need to move the needle. Get ready for a 22% hp loss. No air up here...... :eek: We will have to go on a ride this summer.

Thanks JA-Moo.

I will be living in Rio Rancho for a year. Once I'm settled, I will let you know so we can ride.

Mike,
When you get out there, get in touch with John and he can get you jetted correctly.
Just have John call me for jets and I'll send them out to him.

A little late but I'm In Albuquerque also would be great to ride with some other smokers, I'm firing my rebuild up tonight!

JA-Moo

We went back and forth PMs and I gave him my number, he never called, so I guess he got it worked out. Not a big change really.

In Albuquerque and enjoying my RD350. It runs out of power after the 10K trailhead on the crest highway, but otherwise I'm getting close on jetting.

Always want to ride with fellow smokers!

Mike
PM and lets ride!
