    got the lectron in and installed. went 3/4 turn out with the idle screw and she idles great, all day long. now that the lectron is installed the power band comes in way late. i want it to come in much sooner. can i achieve this by turning out the fuel metering rod? or??

    The only way I can get a lectron to do that is to have it to lean as it seems to make the mid a bit vauge, was the pipe sounding a little more ring dingy as this would indicate you may be a bit lean
    My friends 125 fitted with a lectron gains power every where and even makes more top than the 39mm pwk it replaced.

    I ended up turning the metering rod out 1/2 turn becuase of pinging. You could try playing with the powervalve to make it open a bit sooner.

    Maybe try a more agressive throttle cam.

    I'm sure a WB165 kit would help! :lol:. I would try turning the rod 1/2 turn richer and try it,if it is the same or worse, I would try turning the rod 1/2 turn leaner from where you started from. Richening the power jet may help as well,it has an effect from approx. half throttle to wide open and is controlled more by throttle position not engine rpm.:cheers:

    Can anyone point me in the right direction for mikuni jetting at 400ft. Got massive bog, struggles getting on pipe.
    Its a new 2013 wr 125. im waiting on my lectron, pipe and 165 kit, but it may not get here b4 the first enduro. Hoping i can get the mikuni a bit better to race with (hope i dont have to). Ive moved the PV down in the slot as mentioned but that didnt help a great deal.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    The biggest thing is the Suzuki jet needle. The stock one is way lean and starves the motor for fuel in the mid range. Needle 6CHY16-62 is Suzuki #13383-36FQ0.

    This will go someway at getting rid of the bog. Adding Walts silver inner PV spring along with the stock spring will help even more.

    Husqvarna Australia's jetting for the 125/150's is too lean. When asking them about the RM needle they said the stock needle is better. Wrong! The stock needle gives you a massive lean spike in the mid range, hence the bog.

    When you say you moved power valve down in the slot please clarify. If the bolt is at the bottom of the slot this will give more power valve opening but not full closure . If you want to ensure less bog the bolt should be at top of slot
    But in my case this reduces top end

    The wr ignition and the 125 cc is also a factor
    If it was a 144 it changes things also - loses the bog mostly
    I'd have said do a the cr ignition but as that fixes bog or changes the way power comes on
    Comes on much quicker
    Since you are going to a 165 you probably don't need the cr ignition and wr may be a nicer ride

    Guys -

    Do the carb recommendations (needle, jets, etc.) pertain to the 2012 CR125 as well?

    Thanks -
