tighten your pants ,she's gonna rip your arms off now! :D

why change out the base gasket again instead of just the MJ? 188 seems very large, just look in the jetting database to get an idea. did you think of the powervalve operating correctly? if this problem started from when you took the cilinder off...

i would also go down 1 size on the MJ

i plan on adjusting the play with a better quality bushing made to fit better/the least play possible, in case the bearings are still in good shape. the more play, the more everything gets hammered. so no play+ grease and a harder bushing should last longer. or maybe you're pressure washing that...

as crank seal i'd go with a double lip seal...

one more thing, i'd like to change the power, to make it rev higher. it's got it's power from very down low but doesn't really like to rev to the moon like a 125 (wich it never will) but i feel there's more. to change the powervalve, i have this aluminium nut that covers the adjustment for the...

so today was trackday. all went super well, no problems whatsoever. fork settings, compression 6 from fully in, rebound about the same. rear compression maximum, rebound about 10-12 clicks from fully in. forks were bottoming out about 95% ,mayb e i'll add some oil in each fork to make a smaller...

that first pic seems like showing a crack in the piston skirt :eek:

with the piston pin in the small end , you shoud not feel any play. if the hole is oval, you should get the con rod replaced :/ hope you can send the 250 piston back and swap it for a 300 piston?

lower compression again but keep optimal squish clearance? heavier flywheel? make sure the PV opens later? or keep it in rain mode all the time ,untill you get used to it? or even better, get a 200, like i did. :-D

hi guys, i may try my 2015 ec 200 for track. what would you advise on changing. can i get a reasonable setting on the clickers to change from enduro setting to more oreinted for track use? front is marzocchi 48mm forks and rear has the Reiger shock (with the purple piggy bag). i'm just an...

if you're going to get it adjusted, go for the best squish (if you also correct the compression). i seem to have been lucky with only a thinner base gasket in my ec200. went from 1.2mm to 1mm and runs better now. not too high compression, no detonation...

it's not because the key broke, that the flywheel doesn't spin anymore. it does spin, and gives a spark, just not at the correct timing. you could even tighten the flywheel to its axle without a key (in the correct position as with a key) and it would run, just would get out of whack if you'd...

8.34L/100km is real good, it won't get better then this. what's your current squish?

i would go back to the single base gasket and jet according to the jettingchart here (or by your feel) without looking at spooge. then i'd look at what oil you're using, and look for an oil with lower flash point (wich is what i also need to do) my ec 200 has even more spooge, but runs superb! i...
