Once again thank for all the help. I know some of you get tired of the newbees but we really appreciate all the help, time and attention. So thanks again. MikeB

Yes that does help, THANKS. KEEP IT COMMING!

Now please excuse my ignorance here folks. I have a LTR jetting kit for my MC250 99. I was sent a kit that included a -0 needle and a 42 slow jet, also a 172 main jet. (Middle position as well) My previous altitude was between 5500 and 6000ft. I don’t want to second guess Les but many of you...

I didnt end up going to that race so I couldn't tell you to many specifics. I know its a 525 so it is on the heaver side. I know it was some rocks and no pavement. He is a very agressive rider espcaly because he only weighs like 160. I think it was an instilation problem on his part. Just make...

My friend ended up buying them for his KTM and he had real problems with them. He ended up going flat two laps into the race. He was mad. He called up the guys and they stand behind there product. They replaced all the balls and the ruined tire. They told him to send the rim in and they would...

Okay I just found my jetting information. The main jet is 172 and the slow jet is 42. The clip position I was told to set in the #3 postion (center) but I moved the needle down on notch. (leaner) The air screw as stated earlyer is about 2 or 2 1/4 out. My elevation is between 5000 to 6000 feet...

For the gas... I used amsoil dominator. I used it 50 to 1 ratio. Run on 91 pump gas. In Idaho that the best you get unless you get race gas. As for the air screw it is out 2 and 1/4 turns out. I belive that is what LTR recomended.

My bike is a 99 mc250. im going to check the jetting in the morning. Ill let ya know whats what.

Im not sure of my jetting. I had it calculated by LTR. They sent me the kit that was for my elevation. I dont know if it is running rich or lean. I would guess thats a good thing. I checked my plug and all looks good. As for the float... that may be a posibility. How would I know if it needs to...

sorry for the lack of information. The bike is a two stroke. When I get to the flats I really clear it out, but with no luck.

I have noticed that I have more power at the beginning of the trail ride. I do long steep hill climbs and steep descents. On the descents the bike stalls and I have a hard time pop starting the bike. I noticed the power loss because I can do a wheelie when I first start off but by the end of the...

I have an MC 250 and the four speed drives me NUTS!! I would love to get the six speed. BUT ITS ALL MONEY... Pray that its a six speed. If you gear it down at all your top speed really suffers.

Thanks for the information. Thats what I was afrade of. I need it for the low end. I have ridded a cr500 and have never needed to go above 1/4 throttle in the woods. Its a crazy fast bike. Good luck with the new MC250 they are great bikes. They feel very solid compared to the other bikes I have...

Thanks for the infomation. Thats exactly what I need to know. I do use Rotella 5W-40W. It works great. I also have a LTR jetting kit. So I should be set. Thanks again. I think I will try it out once I get done changing my fork seals. MIKEB

Thanks for the information. I just wonder if I put on the 14oz weight if it would help with the gearing? MIKEB
