alky question

Start at 48.5mm. Chances are you'll never change it.

That's where they were set at but then I turned them one round in to richen up a bit.

not that i would argue with someone with clearly more experience than me, but humor me. when you tune lectrons with no load...... do you not have to tune once at the track with real world elements? ie load, engine temp etc? yes you can tune any motor on a non loaded setup and get it right, but as soon as it is introduced to real world elements it is not even close. even going from a dyno to real world it will need more fuel, less timing no?

 

either way i would still never fire a bike that didn't have a chain and brakes. you're asking for trouble.

I think someone else answered that for me, but you can get the needles right just by revving it until it sounds crisp and clean. Now for the powerjets, those have to be tuned at the track.

 

On the first set of Lectrons I tried, I was tuning them like they were pwks. The motor was a little blubbery and smoked a lot off idle and when revving, but I thought I could get it cleaned out, and it would pull out of it on down the track. Didn't happen. I made many rides of shame down the track, lol. When I finally got the needles where it was fast and crisp to rev, that's when it would finally take off.
