Can anyone advise what the standard main / pilot jets, float level, needle, needle jet are for the '74 MX250A ???

Use the same as where in the scooter you were riding last week, they'll work a treat.

Nah not sure that the Honda Vario runs a Mikuni Stewart, not even sure it has a carby!!
I will get it sorted one way or another and see you on the start line at Canowindra this weekend. The weather is looking great, just need to disable Holmseys water truck ;D

Sounds good, been a while between drinks for me hope I remember how it all goes.

Ive had a peek at Yamaha 250's everything except MX250 but if the carby is around the VM28mm on average it is as follows
mj 150 - 160
pilot 50 remember average + or minus 10
float level 19 - 22 +or - 2.5
jet needle 5d to 5f
needle jet O-4 +or -

There were two different sizes of carb fitted to MX250s. Early ones had 28 or 30mm (?), later ones had 34mm.

Thanks for all the replies, it was getting a bit confusing as I have a VM34 carby which is standard for the '74 model so I eventually found the OEM details. I have posted them below for anyone's future reference.
