Default What's this jet?

I had a spare 34Pict-3 apart today and the main jet had "104" stamped
on the top it.

1) I thought jets increased in increments of 2.5. Is that not the
case?
2) If that's size, it seems small for a stock 1600 doesn't it?

Any idea where that number 104 comes from?

cheers,
griff

p.s. Does anybody want to trade a 120 or 135 main jet for a 125? My
1600 has a Pict 30/31 that could use re-jetting to 125.

A lot of guys use a 130 main jet because of the ethanol in the gas.
