6/12/2025 11:10am I’ve ran Belray 80 Weight Gearsaver, The Honda gear oil in the red bottles, and Maxima MTL since I bought mine new in 16 and can’t say a bad thing about any of them. If you can get one of those local and fairly easy, that would be my choice. Not a fan of running engine oil in a two stroke gear box.

6/10/2025 11:35pm I run Maxima MTL in my 22' but I'm sure any of the ones you listed will be great as long as its MA2 certified. I think some guys even run ATF lol.

5/18/2025 5:29pm About 45 degree. Basically you need the tab touching the plunger on the needle, but not depressing the plunger in.

5/1/2025 10:05pm That sounds like some good starting points for you. Make sure you check the float height also to 8 - 9mm. From the manual, your bike has the S-1: To Remove the needle-Jet, remove slide assembly, remove carb from bike, remove float bowl and float, remove main jet, and then remove the 8mm brass nut under main jet (Main jet holder). The needle-Jet is behind that. If it does not fall out the bottom easy, use a tool and push down gently from the top of the carb and it should fall out. When you have all this apart, you...

4/30/2025 11:10pm First page has good base settings. Running 32:1 will lean it out as well as the type of fuel will be a bit leaner because of how it burns. You might want to try it and and see how it runs and maybe go back to 40:1 to richen it back up.

Tracktor Liked a reply to forum topic 38mm Airstriker and STIC, KTM-150sx.
4/21/2025 5:42pm Here is a post from KTMTalk I did recently about my experience so far. No, I haven't filed needle yet. Not sure it could get any better but I do have an extra laying around so might try at some point- So we have a bit more time on ours now plus I finally pried the boys off of it long enough to ride myself. Holy crap is all I can say! The amount of power the STIC adds is hard to explain to people. I did end up playing with the PV settings to get a bit smoother delivery...

2/11/2025 4:32pm Its not necessary that kawi bring anything back because 2 stroke never left. Yamaha and ktm make sure that 2 stroke didnt disappear all this years😜 just kidding... Amazing news , hope to see 125/250s new style/frame/susp with keihin carb or maybe some EFI for enduro models
Rickyisms Liked a reply to forum topic 250 2T bottom end Help
2/5/2025 3:33pm You shouldn’t need 7 as the seals will come with the bearings. The schematics for the OEM parts on RMATV is great, go through all the engine diagrams and add each bearing you see in the bottom end to your cart. If you hover your mouse over the callout number on the schematic, RMATV will populate a window to add to your cart with the recommended quantity for the drawing. Usually Honda OEM parts are pretty fair, so I would just buy those instead of trying to hunt down a kit of lesser quality. Pro-X is good stuff, I’d avoid...
