I was wondering this too. Thanks for the question and answer above.
What benefits do you get from a different main jet? Is it more a throttle response type thing or better
performance or both?
I have a 84-86 Spree that I would like to re-jet, last time I cleaned I believe it had a #65 stamped into it.
Im curious to see what it will do to the Spree.
Thanks.

if your running with out the airbox you have to put a larger main jet to compensate for the more air flow going in.

It's like Bakaracer said, you don't get "better" performance just from installing a new jet. You get better performance by doing something that increases the engine's capacity to process a mixture of air and fuel. If you install a less-restrictive airbox, improve internal engine flow by enlarging ports, or plug on a de-restricted muffler, you must change the size of the jet to match the increased volume of incoming air.
Throwing on a bigger jet will simply make the mixture richer than ideal. This will decrease power and produce more soot due unburnt fuel which will deposit itself on the spark plug fouling it, and exhaust system, eventually blocking flow.
Installing a smaller jet will produce a hotter-burning mixture (fuel vaporization is a big component of temperature stability) that runs the risk of an overheated bore and seizure therefrom.

You may have that jet thing a little reversed. If teams of Honda engineers determined that the 65 jet was "Right" for a stock Spree, then it follows that any other size will be "Wrong".What benefits do you get from a different main jet? Is it more a throttle response type thing or better
performance or both?
