  Recollections of the Jet Age   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Jet was created in 1951, the same year that I was, and for at least a couple of decades was important to fl people in ways that may be difficult to appreciate today.
Jet certainly violated the taboos of mainstream magazines in its graphic, fl-and-white presentation of violence and death.
Jet focused much of its attention on fl celebrities, and, by my perception, seemed to go out of its way to depict interracial couples.

  Motorcycle Jet Kits & Carburetion Basics - Tech - Motorcycle Cruiser
A jet kit typically includes a drill bit(right) to remove the plugs covering the pilot screw(s), adjustable jet needles (bottom) and the removable clips (to the left of the needles) that permit their height to be changed, perhaps some shims (above the clips), a selection of mainjets, and new slide springs.
Jet kits will usually include new needles that can be raised (to richen mixture) or lowered (to make it leaner) to suit or, less often, shims to change the height of your stock needles.
Main jets (bottom) may be exchanged for larger or smaller size to make the mixture richer (a greater amount of fuel mixed with the incoming air)) or leaner (less fuel) at full throttle.

 Special Order Remarks of Congressman Scott on the 50th Anniversary of Jet Magazine   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Both Ebony and Jet Magazine have meant a lot to African-Americans; it was a way for us to be connected as a community, at a time when there were few publications of widespread circulation devoted to African-American life.
The success and longevity of Ebony and Jet Magazine are due to the vision, hard work and perseverance of John H. Johnson, the publisher, chairman, and Chief Executive Officer of Johnson Publishing Company.
Jet Magazine followed in 1951, and continued John Johnson’s vision of reporting about the people, history and current events of the African-American community.
