Hello I am new to the forum! I know that there are many threads on this already but I’ve been scattering trying to find all the information I am looking for. So I just picked up a last years model 2018 crf 250r only put 1.2 hours on the bike. And it is pretty hard to start when cold, as...

Hey I just rebuilt my 2003 sx125 and put a lectron carb on it, I started it the other day for the first time and it ran perfect. I started it again a couple days later to drain the float bowl and as it ran out of fuel it started to rev up and died, I went to start it...

This maybe a noob question but here it goes, I was riding at the local track the other day and as I was landing on most of the jumps my bike would get quite wobbly almost? I’m sure I wasn’t bottoming out but the bike was acting like it, I’m 160 pounds and I’ve set up my sag on the...

Figured I’d update everybody on how everything went, so I got the clutch recall done and was told “lithium batteries don’t like the cold”. Anyway I started looking into it deeper and saw the starter grounds through the case and doesn’t have a ground wire. So I ran a wire from the negative battery terminal down to the starter mounting/ground...

You might want to look into getting your ECU reprogrammed as well. I had Phoenix Honda Racing do some custom mapping on my 2018 CRF450RX, and it eliminated flameout issues, and the decel pop. Also smoothed out the response quite a bit. Also, if you have to haul anywhere to go ride and it's cold, pull the battery and keep it in your heated passenger compartment in your truck/hauler. starting will be easier

Thanks for all the help guys I think I’ve got it figured out gonna bring it to dealer for the clutch recall anyway so I’ll talk to them about the tps while I’m at it!

if you’re hearing decel pop on a new bike it’s more than likely that the TPS is set too low in the range causing it to be lean... But yes, definitely replace that factory battery first they are terrible...

Yes I did, I’m thinking because it is a lithium battery that could be part of the issue aswell, I know they don’t like the cold and they lose a bunch of power that way aswell.

Well now that you say that I did hear a bit of back firing almost on deceleration I was riding with some other guys and I thought it was their bikes to be honest, I recharged the battery and left it maintaining for a few hours inside in the house to let it warm up too, I think my issue...
