It's a tighter fit than the Mikuni 36 pumper, but it's been done. Do a Bing/Google search for "fcr carb on a klx250" and you'll get numerous hits with Thumpertalk probably having the most input.

Deej is the supreme moderator in charge around here. He's known for keeping his bikes sparkly clean. I suppose that was an inside joke . . .

Looking forward to hearing how the FCR goes for you.

You don't have to be around here for too long to get to the inside of that joke.

FCR has been done on some 300s, similar. I understand it may require some frame grinding.

I've wondered because a 37 or 39 FCR can be had for a bit over $100 with some digging on ebay. I saw an 05 and 04 CRF250R carb set, one around $100 the other $125 with throttle assembly and cables.
