smooth out an 87 CR250
« on: June 10, 2013, 04:42:55 pm »
Hi Guys,
Has anyone had experience with smoothing out the power on an 87 CR250?
Some more bottom end and transition to mid range would be nice.
Cheers

We'll start with the easy way. Machine a 50mm spacer  minimum 2mm LARGER ID than the exhaust duct outlet, Then fit that between the pipe and the cylinder. Test. Measure stinger/tailpipe ID(usualy 27mm).

From what ive heard, you can buy a flywheel weight which screws into the puller thread...It works really well on the late 80s cr 250s, & would smooth your hit out & make the power more useable.

How is the needle jetting? if its rich it will give a harder hit as it transitions than if its spot on?
