Does anybody have any experience with putting a jet kit in a stock atv (Honda Foreman). Does it improve performance enough to tell a difference? Any thoughts? :grin:

 On certian sport ATV I,ve rejetted There can be a dirffrence but only when used in conjunction with exaust and intake modifications. In order to make more power by adding fuel you're also gonna have to get more air in and more exaust out.

 On a foreman Even if you do all of the neccacary modifictations to improve preformance all you will end up with is a slow quad that happens to run a little better than other foremans

You can always try raising the float level. I don't know about your carb, but most main jet metering rods have more than one groove so the rod can be raised to richen or lowered to lean out. Unless you live at high altitudes there usually isn't much need or gain in changing carb jetting with stock intake and exhaust.
