125-200cc lectron good(thus far).

I agree and think that proper preload is the answer and not the amount up and down in the adjustment slot. The springs tension and set aren't exactly the same when new, then when you factor in spring fatigue... Yeah it's like jetting,, no two are exactly the same.

did 100+km on sunday & didn't notice any bogging at all so hoping that the PV was responsible. not the best track to test on as not many really gnarly hills so will see when I go to some different riding areas. does lose a bit of top end but think I liked it better & can live with a bit less top(I think). will still adjust the rod a qtr-half turn leaner & see what happens as think it could still be slightly better off idle/down low. still cant get over the fuel economy these carbs deliver, 100 km mostly flat knacker & didn't even get to reserve. im sure 140-150km is possible even with my big arse on it. will try next time I go out & run it near on dry & see what I get

been slack & havnt adjusted rod yet but the bog is still there. not sure whether its rich or lean. seems like its running out of juice on big long gnarly uphills(near the top) & when in second when probably should be in first(say at bottom of gully about to go up a hill and whack throttle it just dies for a second then comes good). nearly stalls then comes good when I stop for a second & give it some revs. a little frustrating I must say. will adjust rod this week half turn leaner, if no good will go back the other way half a turn richer. on a brighter note I did 115km of trailriding today(50:50 WFO/single track-fairly up it!) before I went on to reserve. got back to ute & had 122km on clock & reckon I still had 20km+ left in her! absolutely unreal economy!!! mate on his berg 450 & bro on his 500exc were near on out as well so on par with the 4T EFI bikes. stoked on the economy of these carbs

yeh adjusted it but still same

yeh ms-3 mate, plug came out sweet with plug chop & a bit paranoid going too lean on PJ as do a fair bit of WFO riding. quarter or half turn ya reckon? counter clockwise yeah for leaner? ill pm ya soon as want to order another for the 300.

I've found that you'll know your lean when the idle hangs bad then go rich a 1/4 or so and all mine were good. This is on the fuel rod adjustment by the way. I also have experienced how they act lean or bog but are actually rich.
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it nearly impossible to smoke a motor by having the fuel rod lean but it's easier to smoke it when the power jet is lean......right?
