Im most likely going to be buying a 05 SJ, and was wondering what you have to do to the carbs on it when you add a b-pipe. And only a b-pipe, nothing else. From my understanding you cant adjust them? Is this something easy to do, or would I have to send them out? Thanks.

Yes the brass plugs will have to be removed in order to access the hi and low screws.

So the adjustments are already there, and I just have to take the plugs off, or drill them to access the screws?
 
I've got an 03 sj with stock 38's, choke plates removed, 2 screens removed from stock flame arrestor, Carbon Tech Low Tension reeds, Limited Bpipe, no porting, and ADA Head (35cc-185psi) and I am basically running what FP recommended with a little richer on the pilot:

135 Mains
75 Pilots (Think Im going to a 72.5 pilot/FP Recommends stock 70's)
95g Springs
stock N/S
recommended screw settings from FP (cant remember them off the top of my head)

I am very happy with the low end snap it has especially with the Jet Works Control Valve and my Skat 12/17 Swirl. It occasionaly has a very very slight bog if I hit it very hard right off idle, but Im going to try switching to 72.5's and adjust the screws and I should be able to work that out.
