I have been swamped with projects and need to get back on the CRF. Steve got the carb for the 610 (second one for correct fitment) and we are sorting out the throttle now. Soon.
Anxiously waiting for updates on this. I've got an 04 TE250, 04 SM450R, 04 CR125, and 06 SM610. I would like to replace the Mik pumper carbs on the 250 and 450. I'm wondering if I can use the same Lectron 38mm carb with different needle/slides on the TE250 and CR125 and a 40mm Lectron for the 450 and 610. 2 carbs for 4 different bikes. Since I can only ride 1 at a time, I don't miind swapping carbs.
post 688 down there is a 510 report. He is having issues that sound like not related to the carb but says the carb is fantastic on the 510. Also Xcuvator is having issues with his 610 install but says what does work is cray hard acceleration and huge top and power. http://www.cafehusky.com/threads/round-two-of-the-other-carb-types-lectron.29488/page-35#post-288678 We need to sort these more but sounds like worth doing as there are big gains to be had.
I would say just send me one and I'll sort out all the issues but with work being what it is right now I doubt that I could get to it any quicker than someone else.
I'm really trying to get one I can work on myself so I can understand all the issues / solutions first hand.
yeah Russ, that's all I do is ride, the rest just takes care of itself. Running a biz is super EZ and takes zero effort.
Still working on it. Kevin from Lectron is doing some mods for us to try. Cool stuff but don't want to rush it or let info out before we are done. Moving forward but a little slowly.
Is there any attempt made yet to fit the Lectron on the CRF 450? I am looking at a good deal on one of these bikes (engine is overhauled with 5 Km on it) I will transform it to a Street hooligan bike , and a Lectron would be nice for the millage improvement if it can be achieved with that Robert-Jan
I have a CRF450 carb sitting here but have not had time to fit it up and test it out. Also Kevin from Lectron is doing a few 4 stroke dirt bike specific mods and I need to speak with him again. I will test it soon I hope. Kelly
Update: Lots of 4 stroke testing happening. We have made some nice improvements for the 4 strokes. We are close to having product. The 4 strokes are far more critical for tuning the low end of the rod than a 2 stroke. That and the major vacuum the 4 stroke has on the slide were two issues to work out. these have both been addressed and the 4 stroke carb will have a adjustable low end circuit for idle and right off idle setting. Working fantastic on the couple of test bikes. More testing to do but getting it really close to being ready for sale. thanks Kelly
great to hear. I'll be a test dummy for the 04-07 TC450 as soon as you get one sorted. Where do I send the monay?
I have a yz250f that I would love to fit one of these metering rod carbs to it if it offers a performance and response improvement. Im also looking at picking up a wxe360. A lectron on that sounds like a real hot ticket! Really looking forward to reports. How's the low end response coming? A bog free carb will sell like hot cakes and if there is more power anywhere its just icing on the cake.
