Hey guys I have a question about my Blast? I bought it a couple of months ago and drove it home fine. Ran it around town and did fine. All stock except that it had a sportster pipe on it with a baffle and a aftermarket can on it.

I decided to get an exhaust for the bike and I bought a D&D Exhaust. Put the exhaust on with the stock intake and filter. I changed the pilot jet from stock (42) to 45 and changed the main jet from a stock (170) to a 175 and even tried a 180. Now all the bike will do is idle and when I give it more throttle at all it will die out.

Let me know if you have any thoughts on what the issue might be?

turns out there was a bunch of old gel'd gas in the bottom of the tank. discovered it by chance. flushed out the tank about 5 times and that fixed that issue.
