What should be the pilot and main jet size for a 1981 900 SS that is stock and has 40 MM carbs with choke circuit
In which case, your best reference is going to be the 1981 version of the owner's handbook. Because, unless I am mistaken, there wasn't a parts book issued for the 1981 SS, only for the earlier 1979-80 model which was fitted with PHM40 A carbs.
Unfortunately, I don't have a copy of that handbook ...
So all I can offer is the following 1982 MHR specification for PHM B carbs, velocity stacks and Contis:
Main: 135 max for the front, 140 for the rear.
Idle: 65 min
(Needle K5, slide 60/1, atomiser 265AB, choke jet 60, pump jet 45, needle jet 300).
HTH - a bit ...
