BB kit for $143
#145
Hello members, just an update and some info for anyone thinking of this kit. Firstly, I like it, should come stock with this. I have about 2500 km on it now and runs great, especially after finally getting the carb set up right. This is what I had it at initially, note I am mostly at sea level. Dynojet 2182, 132 main, 40 pilot, Idle screw out 2 1/2, needle clip at 4th notch down, spring included with kit, uni filter, snorkel removed P4 slip on . Ran ok but smelled rich and idled all over the place. BTW, I initially drilled the starter jet from .015 inch stock, to .018 and the bike starts hot or cold, first turn over. Fuel mileage, 4.76 lt / 100 km or 49.4 MPG US A friends Mazda 3 does better!
Here is what I have now , Pretty much as DJ recommends, DOH! for the 250. Dynojet 2182 , 128 main, 38 pilot, needle clip at 3rd notch down, everything else same.
Runs way better, from idle to redline. Almost power wheelies in first. Fuel mileage, 4.00 lt / 100 km or 58.8 MPG US, pretty much where I figure it should be. Reason I pulled the carb again was fueling up with a ride with a friend with a crf250l, he got double the first mileage. Hope this info can save some time for yas

I just recently sold my SF and the new owner is super happy with the bike. I don't think the quality is any less than factory. BTW, for a grand more than I got for it, I picked up a really nice FZ07. Cheap upgrade! Similar bike, three times the power, much better on the highway, which is what I do most of. Have my eyes out for a klx 250s and the 300 kit would be the first upgrade.
