1983 RM250D Carbie settings
« on: July 03, 2009, 10:08:56 am »
Jusr bought the bike, looked in the Clymers Manual and only shows a round slide carbie settings, when it should be a Flat slide.

 
Carbie No VM38
Jet neeedle 6FJ41
Main jet 290
Pilot jet 60
Needle Jet Q-8
Throttle cut away 4.0
spigot size 43mm
Bell 62mm
Body length 116mm

Does this sound right

The 83 RM250 carb is definitely TM38. I have a 83 RM250 carb in my attic if you'd like me to pull it apart and check the jetting for you.

No, you are right and have sent those settings to Hatricks for the carbie, thanks for your help
