    Hi I have a 1999 tiger 900 (carb model) and have just fitted a set of Delkevic silencers which look better and sound better do you think I should re - jet carbs ?

    Hi david!
    Well, if it feels ok and doesn't splutter, i'd leave it as is?
    From the forums i've read, adjusting carbs seems like a rocky road to eternal damnation and possibly a divorce as a desert.

    I'd steer clear BUT @MadMrB is a knowledge on these "carb" devil fire mixing thingies....
    Good luck and don't despair......

    Yes i agree if the bike is running well and not messing around then leave it alone. You will know quite soon after fitting new cans. Just enjoy.
    Regards
    Joe.
