Is any one running a 98 CR250 carby on there 500,
if so were are you with the jeting and needle hight.
It will give me somthing to start with.
Darwin Australia is HOT-HUMID and HOTTER, it never gets under 23 degrees celsius/ 75 degrees fahrenheit,
and you can cook bacon and eggs off a clean spade.

Hey, didnt you say you are running a 98 or 99 ignition? If so are you going to try the power jet funtion on this carby? It would be cool to see if it did much on wide open sections.

I say bolt it on and see how it runs, then jet from there. believe it or not, 250s and 500s take pretty similar jetting, its isn't as some would assume as being twice what the 250 is since a 250 revs a whole lot higher. just bolt it on and try it.

Danny,
i was of the same opinion but you can never be to careful.
as you know someone may of done it by now and its good to get a heads up.
Ditchwhitch,
97- was the only model with the ignition activated power jet carby.
98-99 in the Gen-1 were not.

This is ther carb I run on my personal hillclimb bikes 41 mm Mik.Flat slide.When your in the rough stuff and the bouncing around it don't cut out and faulter Like the Kiehine does,I think it's because of the better float arangement the floats don't bounce around as much in the rough stuff, I also run a stock reed cage with Pro stage duel carbon fibre reeds with the limiter plates cut I still get longer life out of them.I've tried them all and they breath better than any I've tried ,They have a larger area of opening than any after market reed,With the stock reed cage with no limiter plates.And they also work better down low,in the mid range,and much more on top end.

my gen-1 is running the same carb setup as Glen runs. It fucken hauls the mail too

Gets terrible gas mileage now though, I run though 10 gallons in a day out at dumont if I'm on that bike.
