Default avg. cost of jetting?

well my new bike has a yosi pipe and KN filter. How much would jetting cost? It will start right up, and idle but dies when i hit the gas until it gets all warmed up.

It sounds like jetting is pretty indepth and I don't know if its somethign i want to do, even though I have done my fair share of mechanical adventures.

A well known shop here in san diego will install jet's and dyno the bike for 275. maybe you just might wanna get your carbs synched.

OT but with a FI bike do you need to get it adjusted when you get a new exhaust and stuff like with a Carb'd bike?

edit: i know you can get powercommander and stuff but is it really nessesary?

Your bike wont blow up without some fuel tuning but if you want the max power and response out of your bike then you should get some fuel management and get it tuned.

synching carbs is a different issue. He can't run off of the idle circuit
