Dan, this is so awesome! You did a great job. It's really great to see one of my customers perspective on the install procedure and some of the ways you did it slightly different. So grateful for the opportunity to help you. A few tips for those watching as well: -Regarding the slide being in the carburetor body once the carburetor is already in the bike: simply grab a pair of needle nose pliers, insert them down into the center of the slide, flare them open by hand and then raise the slide up and out. It makes things very easy! As you mentioned, you can even dump the slide out onto the bench before you ever put the carburetor in in the first place. I for one get too excited and always forget to do that 😜 -Regarding the idle: it is a little high but that's right where you want it. It is completely normal for our Lectron Mod to require a slightly higher RPM than people are used to. Great job. I can hear the difference in the engine. I'm so glad you took the time to make this video. It's good for everyone and I know how time consuming they can be so really, awesome work! Your property looks beautiful and I really enjoyed watching you do wheelies up and down your driveway with a bike that runs like it should have from the factory! Here for you whenever you need me, and that goes the same for the rest of you watchers and Dan's subscribers 🤘 So badass, you killed it. -Charles // mXrevival
It's great you were able to communicate with this guy but I've tried to communicate with you on plenty of occasions you've opened my messages but then don't answer that's awesome man you can't be that busy 😒😒😒😒😒
It took 4 of us to get my xf on the back of the truck we had no ramp so we made due it was only me and my 1 other homie to get if off we didn't drop it thank God but we definitely had a struggle my bike has a Clutch cable but no handle bars and the actual clutch lever itself wasn't on the bike so we had to roll it it would lock we'd roll it again until I just grabbed the back tire and lifted as much as I could so the front could roll
Can you post the part numbers that were used? Mainly interested in the throttle cable with the 90 degree bend and the twist throttle for the SR300. I am glad this worked out for you.
I can't believe you pay over $500 for carburetor and there's still a flat spot that's ridiculous my $100 carburetor ran tits right off the jump no flat spots
I was thinking the same thing! There are so many happy Nibbi Owners (or any number of other quality knockoffs). You can even get a genuine Mikuni or Kiehin for $200-300 new. I plan on getting a Nibbi PWK30 or 32 for my Templar X 250 (fairly similar to the SR250 from what I can tell except mine is air cooled with a six speed). To each their own I suppose. Putting a $500+ carb on a $2k bike seems mad to me, though.
I worked with Charles over at MX Revival and he got mine setup for my bike. Great guy that will take care of you. www.mxrevival.com/product-page/lectron-carburetors-2020-2021-ssr-motorsports-sr300-sr250-sr450
Doesn't look like you have any freeplay in the cable?? You should have at least 2mm of freeplay with handle bars full lock right to left. Also sounds like your idle is to high
I put the same carburetor on without doing anything but just changing the carburetor on my sr250s 2022 did a whole bunch of other things also but does anyone know where to get plastics or graphic kit I should say for the bike and I get my bike up by using my motorcycle lift lol
Makes no sense to purchase an inexpensive bike that has carb issues on the showroom floor and to make it run right you got to invest in an expensive carb to make your inexpensive bike run good.I just dont get it .
Howdy, I'm 56 and have been a super tweeker since I was 9 because of what I has told one day, you got what you payed for, bullshit. Not here to tell anyone what to do but I have bought my son the 300s and love it.Yes the factory carbs sucks,got mine to work good but there was much more to get from this engine. Watched mxr on carb and will not pay that much for a dirt bike carb , I would have bought a injected bike. This isn't my first rodeo , My son has been on xmotos from beginning and that carb sucked, so I did my research and landed up With nibbi from china and boy howdy it cam to life. So with that I bought a nibbi for this bike and unleashed the animal. I throttle is smoking, and he's killing all the 450's out there, and nibbi was 116.00 to the door, also didn't have to buy any other parts to make this work. Used largest main jet and set pintel at 2nd from lean and now this bike rips. Waiting on slow boat from china for 14T frt sprocket to get the rest of the bottom end this bike has. Adding 1 tooth in frt is the same as adding 3T in the back but you do that you need a longer chain and your not getting the low end from this engine. These china made dirt bikes are worth more than we are paying for. And with that, for God and Country, Mark.
Thanks for the feedback. I would love to try the Nibbi side by side. I've heard good things about it for sure! In my case, I couldn't find enough info on that one and didn't want to dump a hundred bucks on a chance. So I went with Lectron seeing that there was a ton of good info our there on them.
@@DanPonjican I here you, but you took a chance on a 5000 dollar china bike didn't you, think about that. Lectron is a great carb but for people that start at 1400 ft. and in the same day can get up to 3 to 4000 ft. in the same day. The rest of the 80 percent's really don't need that. I live in western NY where it's deep and steep. One other thing, when it's time for tires, IRC V33, if there is such thing as a unicorn, this comes the closest. Be safe and ride like you stole it, Mark.
@Ross Sanders Yep, made mistake ,been an A class auto tech and power generation engineer for 35 + yrs and have at times to much info in my head and when I was banging that out I was multi tasking at work, thanks for catching that, Mark
Ima 300s owner and man handle the hell outta this bike, I grab bars and place my hand under the rear fender where the rear Frame is, I grab that and just throw it up with my knee. I manage to turn this bike around in short bed ram truck soo yea start working 💪 biceps lol.
Why would you take the tank off to just simply remove a line no less something you didn't even need to remove in the first place all you had to do was pop the boot off ripped the carb about throw the other one in the original throttle cable would have been fine
I don't see how I could have got it on there without the tank coming out. That boot fitment was just way too much of a struggle even with the tank removed.
@@DanPonjican that sounds like a very frustrating afternoon trying to figure out that that was the problem. My guess would've been the idle air screw on the carburetor
