per 1999 Kawasaki KX models

The restyled and revised 1999 KX250 has even more power than before. Engine performance is further improved with the addition of a new carburetor featuring the Kawasaki Throttle Responsive Ignition Control (K-TRIC) throttle position sensor.
Keihin Power Jet PWK38S Carburetor with K-TRIC
  • New "shorty" design places the mainjet closer to the cylinder for improved throttle response
  • Kawasaki Throttle Responsive Ignition Control (K-TRIC) uses a sensor and alter ignition timing according to throttle position and engine speed for better throttle response and more power
  • Power jet system uses an electronic solenoid to close a fuel passageway at high rpm to extend the power peak and increase top-end power at over-rev
