Love Emails like this especially Monday morning. Makes it all worth it. "Kelly, Lectron did WONDERS for my 83 Honda CR480 !!! Killer revs, easy adjust and improved the starting 1000 % PERT DAYMN SKIPPY ! looking forward to next ride with it on my 81 WR430 ! Thanks to you and the guys a Lectron anytime a customer wants a review, have them e-mail / call me "
Can you get him to do a write up on his experience? Am interested on the size carb he used and if he had any fitting issues. Also the difference in power delivery before/after. I have mates with CR480's and CR450's from that era. Pics would be great as well. Ta.
Working on it. It fit perfect because we built it to fit. He said it dropped right on and ran perfect. WAY Ezer to start, smoother and more power, crisper response. Same with my 83 XC500 and every other bike I have put a Lectron on.
here are the pix and info. I was mistaken, we built this for his Husky 430 but he tried it on his CR480 and really liked it... "on the install... as I ordered the carb for my Husky 430, and sent you measurements off a Mikuni VM38 that came off a 430 ( I was using it on the Honda CR480...clear ? ) I shoulda ordered the carb a few mm longer overall. ( most likely on the air cleaner side as that is the side that appears to be short in photos ) { I ordered it @ 100mm} as far as performance... still hardish to start cold..warm is a BREEZE compared to the Mikuni... only two or three kicks warm. off idle is much sharper than the Mikuni, and cleaner from mid to top end. I had to lean the power jet out from as delivered one and a half turns. I am running Sunaco 112 leaded , Spectro Golden @ 32 :1 motor had prob 3hrs on fresh top end before I put Lectron on.... No problems with cable routing / length whatsoever.... I am using a Emglo gunner gasser from DC Plastics... cable came with it."
keep getting many happy customer Emails on these carbs. Makes all the work we have done with these so worth it. Thanks. "Kelly, just thought I would let you know, the carb is excellent! The throttle cable I have works but I have 0 free play. Thanks for helping me out!"
