    Wow. Thanks. That certainly set some things straight.

    I realize that I can't just change one thing and expect wonders. But I guess this is the learning process I need to go through eh.

    Half the fun of bucketing is making and fixing the bike, as you know.

    Unless you are lazy like me and go the Lonchin way.

    I'll check out how big the rg250 carb is. It's all food for thought.
    It very much depend on your bike. I have tried a couple on my fifty, original type and a modified one resulting in a worse running bike.

    Most small bikes I have worked on are quite happy to run without one. Try it and let us know your results.

    Yes 4 strokes are for homos. Homo-sapiens that is, who have realized bigger is better.

    It's not the size that counts, it's what you do with it.

    Careful...this is coming from a guy who has a wee tank, covered by a hollow large tank If size doesn't count...ride with just the wee one!! No one will mind, and Trudes has seen it before

    ouch...

    Muddy, Carbs are a dark art, small changes are the best option. I'll bring along some jets for you (next meeting).

    But for now get it running well and focus on the race craft (corner speed and braking) for a little longer; the bike is fast enough for the field you are running in.
    or you might enter my realm of a poorly running bike which i spend all my race days fixing.......or giving up on
