jmlfin Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 (edited) Anyone here who would tell me what carb setup to use with new 2008 250cc Keihin? Its brand new and wont work at all in low revs and stalls when even little bit in an angle. I have strong feelings its the float level, but would help to know what needle position to use, which jets and how much I should open the mixture screw. And this bike is not the first ones that were equipped with manufacturers note "please change the needle and jets to make it work". Nope.... my friend has one and its working nicely, mines not.... and he didnt even touch the carb although instructed so.

stevec Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 See "SSDT Beta Pre-Event List" in "Other News" (home page). Covers it nicely... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jmlfin Posted April 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 Thanks! Would this be something that should be used in normal conditions, I mean, its still SSDT that requires in my understanding totally different setups if you like to finish the run?

Guest majestyman340 Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 (edited) If its an 08 bike any doesnt work properly then surely it would be a good idea to talk to your dealer before asking for help on here?

firstgear Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 See Andyss post for a faster link. Post is on the front page of Beta forum on top. Post is labeled "08 2T with Keihin Carb" Setting the float to this spec eliminated all issues with my 270. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
