I am looking at re-jetting my 2008 Tour Deluxe. I'm interested in any info and experience anyone might have with this. What size main jets and needles to get and so-on. I have already put new idle jets in, which was a beautiful thing. I'm just looking to get a little more performance out of the bike, which is why I'm considering re-jetting it.

My 06 Venture has K7N Air filters and RoadKing Screaming Eagle slipons which sounds great, add a noticeable oomph of power boost (albeit small but noticeable over stock).. When I inquired about doing this, I had been told that "re-jetting" was NOT required.. I now have a new set of slip ons someone sent me as a return of favour (free!) and I'd love to try them on.. they fit a Roadking.. These are turn downs with beautiful chrome. When I look down either end, I can see light glowing in.. and the burner louvres (dunno what to call them..) I wonder how LOUD these will be.. I'm willing to give them a try, because as they say: Nothing Venture'd Nothing Gained.. =) But something got me a puzzlin though.. My buddy wants my Screamin Eagles to try on his bike but says that everyone he's talked to and everywhere he's read (other than here) claim and state that no matter what anyone else says, he needs to re-jet after installing any after market slipons.. My Venture runs GREAT as is, no rejetting or anything.. I remember this being more of an issue with VTwins like my VStar etc.. but huh? So what's the story here? With these new pipes I have, which seem more open than previous slipons, is re-jetting in my future? What say the learned guru-riders of the forum? Cheers, thanks in advance.
