    It is coming. They were slammed when I got on the program and added to the pile. They also like to wet bench setup each one. It has not been super fast. I should have my own stock here shortly and can get them out same day. When you have a great product you tend to get backed up. Will double check now but was on the build sheet last time I looked so I know we did not miss you.

    Thats awesome info Walt thanks! I have not been able to judge how much better i am getting as I am riding a lot of snow with miles of wheel spin. I still realize I get better MPG just hard to tell exactly how much. Last couple of rides i ahve checked and it seemed 4-6 mpg better despite the snow riding. With my 3.6 gallon tank I am good for about 100 miles which is going to be really cool this summer.

    Do they graph or print out the flow bench/dyno results? It would be nice to have a baseline characterization supplied with the carb you are purchasing. Do they do an air/fuel ratio vs. rpm sweep?

    I think they simply verify it is working right and within the range of what it is being setup for. I will ask.

    I mounted my 36mm Lectron today. Started right up and hardly had to touch the idle screw. I did have a problem getting the spigot all the way into the carb flange but it seemed to seal up. It is a tight fit but it is on there. Throttle cable is fine. No problem at all there. After reading all the comments here I did lean my needle out 3/4 of a turn and richened the Power jet 1/4 turn. So far so good. Sounded clean. Very little smoke. I did have the FMF 200SX protopipe on this bike off my 2011 bike. New FMF Power Core S/A. Bike was very quiet. Bike is basically ready to ride when the Doctor gives me the go ahead. I might be able to do some light riding a week or two before the SC Nat'l . I would like to check the "Jetting" and suspension.

    Kelly, you need to come up with some kind of a loaner/demo program for these things.

    I'm intrigued, but I'm old school in that I wonder "if they were so good, why does nobody put them on bike, and why doesn't Keihin/Mikuni use the same technology?" It's hard to drop $300 (especially after already dropping $250 on a PWK) on one of these without ever experiencing one...

    The reports and feedback are all really good, but still...

    I think that Husqvarna must have gotten a smokin' deal on a boxcar load of Mikuni 38s that they have been trying to use up, or else they would at least be running the Keihins on their bikes.:doh:
