83 fxrs jets?

I need help with jet size for a 1340 with S&S G upgrade, long shot pipes. Also looks like the owner seldom changed the oil (40K), what would you all recommend to clean some of the sludge if anything at all. Thanks for any advice you may have.

Will not help with the jets but with "cleaning" yes. Remove the oil tank, flush it with kerosene (or solvent). Buy some good oil - it will "wash" the engine.

For the carb , You have way to much carb with a G so call s&s and talk to there tech people and see if they can help . You might swap with some one that has a E carb ,that would help. Now the oil thang , I also bought a bike that had old oil in it.I took some kenosine and filled the tank twice and drained then bought some regular 20-50 dino oil ran that night and changed refilled and ran it a 100 miles and changed it did that one more time and then filled with the synthetic i have run for years and it ain't hd oil. Mine had sat for 9 years with 6o00 miles so it was sludge. I did take the case vent and run to a simple filter under the bike . It spit out a bunch of yellow cream once and was done ,has run dry from then on and quite clean now . I did chandge the amsoil after 1000 miles and will go to 3000 for now on.
