I will dig around and see if I can find or remember the specs for the '96 FE501 I once owned. It used the flat slide 38mm Dellorto with a K35 needle,33 pilot jet, 260 needle jet, air screw 3-3 1/2 turns out, and I think the main jet was a 185. I have the '89-'96 parts manual as a PDF file and it list all the stock specs. for each model.

I also have the 96 parts in PDF but the parts are just that: parts. the customer I'm dealing with has a PHM fitted when it should be a flat slide so he'll need a later spec jetting line up anyway.

Hi
From the 89-96 parts manual you can get some info to the std. setup:
ROUND SLIDE - 180MJ, AB365 Needlejet, 50 throttle, K32 needle, 52 PJ
FLAT SLIDE - 185MJ, FN260 NeedleJet, 55 throttle, K32/k35 ?? needle, 33PJ
bigger engine (501) - round slide, smaller engine (350/400) - flat slide.
I have here one flat slide from the 400-97, I can check and send you the setup that its there, or can sell you the carb cheap
:cheers:

thanks for all the help everyone. if the 600 starts in 1997 well then I think that the later specs are just fine. the ignition changed a bit but looks like the same cam as the 501 so should be good with the 1997-2000 specs.

I know all that. me forgetful! tish! tish!
unfortunately Dell orto only made one width of needle and they all 'burble' due to being rich. I have had special brass needles machined for me 3-4 years ago and I've never tested them. never had the time.

Hi Zaga
I have another 600 here today and the needle is a K32. clip 3.
but your 33PJ doesn't make sense with such a large (55) cutaway? could it be nearer a 40?

Hi
Those were the specs that I got for the older bikes.
The ones I mention as flat slide are for the 350/400 bikes and the round slide are for the 501. I don't think that there were any 600 back then.
But even for the 501 the PJ is a 52, the 33 is for the 350/400.
Anyway the stock jetting of my 600 (98) is MJ-195, NJ-DR270, Needle K51, PJ-40. But they go leaner than that as you know. They go to NJ 35 and 33 with DR72 and DR274.
I think that the K32 on that 600 is out of place, probably ??
