Default Honda 98 Arrow

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I would like to hear from anybody that has jetted a 98 Honda Arrow VT 1100 C3. I’ve jetted dirt bikes, Harleys and 4 wheelers but never a cruiser. Is this something that would be relatively easy? What should I watch for? Any suggestions? Thanks.
Note" Somebody told me something about a inserting a small washer under the needle?? Does this work?

Raising the jet needle makes it more rich in the mid-throttle range, which could help compensate for upgraded exhaust. As to how much, I have no idea. What's a Honda Arrow?

LOL. That reminds me of those guys who own Camaros since high school and still spell it "Camero", even though it's on the dang car.

Funny, It is actually a Honda (Aero) This is my neighbors bike and I just assumed that it was an “arrow” since he has it decked out with Indian fringe and what not. Thanks for the response.
