Hi
Just built a Gran Turismo GT200 Big block engine and after some jetting recommendation please.
My set up is 30mm PHBH, BGM V4 clubman, 18/47 SX200 gearing.

Anybody with a similar setup?

It's a freshly built engine and you want it rich and for the first 500 miles you won't hit full throttle to use the main properly as I said it's a starting point as you put the miles on do plug checks but from what I've seen posted over the years with jetting for this kit they end up on 140/145 That's why you start rich

Gt200. 28mm Delly. Breathsweet foam and big rubber elbow. Pm tuning Evo pipe. Choke 60. Idle 52. Slide 40. Av268 atomizer. My main is 134. X13 needle. When I had a big big clubman (gen 1) my main was 130.

It starts 1st kick cold with the choke on and not touching the throttle.

I was not happy when I had the big box clubman on it. I could not get the mid range perfect on it. When I put the pm pipe on it, it cleaned it up perfectly. And now at 3,200 rpm I get pushed back in my seat.

After reading the others, I'm going to raise my main to 140 and see what it's like.

Hi Bidsy,
My jet200 has the same setup. I'm trying to figure out the right exhaust to match the sx200 gear box. With the v3 bigbox, how is the behaviour going from 3rd to 4th, how is acceleration in 4th, and what's the top speed?

I've been going back over forum posts and there is a lot of discussion on this topic but I'm not finding anyone with SX gearing. I'm sure it's in there, but needle in a haystack.

Btw, I had a v1 bigbox on my scooter when I first put the GT on, but I didn't have it jetted correctly and quickly put a expansion on it that I had laying around.
