To every man upon this earth
Death cometh sooner or late
And how can a man die better
Than facing fearful odds
For the ashes of his fathers
And the temples of his Gods
To which he has replied.... Poor guy.
I feel sorry for him if he was mislead but Im not so sure........

They used it for a race or 2 (hockenheim iirc) and then went back to teh carbs.Originally Posted by SimJen
I've heard that the ktm125 uses FI and that seems to be pretty quick, although it doesn't have a noticeable advantage, it has in 3 or 4 seasons gone from nothing to top bike in the class, or everything but.
Yeah, the bikes stores that told him should know better. It was only in around the year 2000 that the litre supersport bikes came out with EFI (correct me if I'm wrong). Why would a 250 have a fuel injection system a decade earlier than its bigger CC counterparts?Originally Posted by Sniper
they got it working but had heaps of problems with flat spots and starting the thing, great idea though if you have the know how, id think it would be pretty fun... but obviosly that dudes right on trademe, so whats the point of doing it yourself cause they all come fuel injected .. pfftOriginally Posted by k14

What advantages would you get? Another 10% h.p? Might give you 36-37 h.p. to play with! Its a 250! If you want to go faster then get a bigger bike...
If you want to go faster on your 250 then spend the money on making them handle, e.g., upgrade the shocks, better tyres and brakes...
I'd prefer to play with a carbed bike where you can mess about with jets than have to deal with the expense of bigger injectors, bigger fuel pump and re-programming the computer to get it right.
And I have never had a throttle position sensor, air flow meter, coolant temp sender, cam and/or crank angle sensor or an oxygen sensor crap out on my bike.
All (99%) of new bikes will be F.I. witch is fine but the expense of an after market kit or the headache of trial and error would leave me cold.
If any one is serious about putting fuel injection on there bike, car, lawnmower there are some very good books at Tech Books, if you have gone past that stage and are looking for a computer to run it then send me a P.M.
We all have our little obsessions...
