@@lexprue Yes, they do. Technology Elevated also can make a SmartCarb SC2 custom made for basically any bike as well. I have a 40mm SC2 on my CR500R and it's the best $700 I've ever spent on a bike hands down. The throttle response is so good that it feels like a fuel injected bike. I plan to make more videos on it soon maybe with an exhaust sound comparison between the Pro Circuit 304 and the FMF Powercore 2 since I haven't seen any videos on KZbin that compare between the two on the 500 and possibly a Q&A on the bike mods. Right now it's too hot outside where I live to be recording videos. lol

What main jet are you running? The shop manual says 175 main and 62 pilot. When i got the same carb the jets had no Keihin stamp or size mark, so assumed they were wrong and got genuine jets. I'm thinking now the whole carb wasn't a genuine part.

Put a jd jetting kit in it. Problem solved
@coloradodirtbike59304 жыл бұрын
Why did you switch out to the air striker 38? The stock 39.5 gives the bike a bit more power from the mid to high end. The 38 im sure you noticed a little more bottom end. The stock carb isn't too bad at all honestly, and fairly easy to jet. Air striker is a big upgrade for a cr500r and 250, but I personally like the stock kx500 for the kx.

My KDX has that, i think the float height is set too high causing it to leak out of the overflow. also the fuel tap apparently doesnt seal when its off so guessing that needs new seals aswel

@charlesgunzelman33234 жыл бұрын
@@sardamsardar it's not normal to have gas leaking from the carb. Your float needle is not sealing. Replace the float needle (they come in carb rebuild kit). Also polish the seat where the needle bottoms out to cut off gas flow. Use something like Brasso brass polish on a cotton swab (qtip) and twist that in the bottom of the hole. It will scrub off any deposits that are getting between the needle and seat. Don't change your float height unless you're going by what the manual says to set it to.
@charlesgunzelman33234 жыл бұрын
@@equalizer4633 if your float height is too high the engine will run super rich. Lowering the float height in a good running bike is a bad idea. Look at Michael Sabo's recent video where he did that to his TRX250R and burned the piston from running way too lean.

what ratio do you mix your fuel at?
@charlesgunzelman33234 жыл бұрын
Read your manual. Most recommend 32:1 or 40:1.
@nissan_68284 жыл бұрын
Charles Gunzelman i usually do 50:1 but i decided to add more oil so it probably ended up being like 40:1 and my bike was smoking a lot more
@coloradodirtbike59304 жыл бұрын
Motul 32:1 is best. Always run a two stroke a little richer.. Better to foul a plug then to blow up your bike. Only time you will ever foul a plug is if your doing like trail riding or scared of the bike and ride it like a old man... Keep it in the power and that's never an issue.
@nissan_68284 жыл бұрын
Cane Corso haha i know what u mean, btw 32:1 would be considered leaner because there is less fuel and more oil, it’s weird, 50:1 is not too bad, but i tried 40:1 and it was smoking a whole lot more, spark plugs are like 3-5 euro anyway
