"I Installed A Lectron Carb in my CHINESE Dirt Bike" Which is like putting a gold ring on a pig. GOOOOOO COMMUNISM YEAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!! You will figure it out,--------eventualy.
You have to have the spark plug grounded to check for spark like that, on the engine case, frame or some other metal part. Came to the right diagnose at the end but you would not have seen a spark even if the coil was unplugged the way you were testing it.

Always great stuff my favorite dirt bike guy on TH-cam. Fantastic narration excellent advice just good stuff. Really like the SSR stuff not a lot of information out there. Been thinking about new bike but so much money. After watching get ur take on the SSR 450 think i see one for me in the future. Thanks for everything Keep doing what ur doing ur going far. Thanks Josh G.
Dude, that is sweet! Lectron you aren't playing. I don't like the carb mount on it. It looks like 32mm, how they get away with no accelerator pump. Small carb can't bog it out with air.
You know it! Was cool to prototype/ bring this into the SSR world for the guys in need. It works excellent. The Lectron is a 36mm - and y9ou're right, they don't get away with it 😂 Hence the swap! But the 2021 will come with a nice pumper carb from the factory. th-cam.com/video/zOUkrH4JonU/w-d-xo.html Thanks for watching! -Charles // mXrevival
Good afternoon. I just purchased the 2021 SSR300 TODAY. Instantly after riding it I was glad I bought it. Great price for the quality of build. However I did pay 4699 which was 200 dollars over MSRP. The dealer said that was the market right now because no one could keep them in stock and they sell as soon as they get them in and they only sent them one this time. I watched your video with the R&D team at the dirt track. I want to purchase the Electron Carb from you and need to know if it would work for the 2021 model. I'm aware they changed the carb and airbox this year. I did notice a slight bog when I blimp the throttle at a lower idle setting. It doesn't do this when I raise the idle a few hundred rpms. Van you offer any advice? Thanks
@@MrBarberselect NICE!! Congratulations on the new bike! You're right, you can't beat a brand new bike for that price- that's a VERY good deal! Yes, absolutely, our Lectron Carb Mod will work on the 2021 no problem BUT now that the intake & air boot inlet & outlet sizes have changed for 2021- we need to use the bigger, more expensive Lectron that is for four strokes. We have been using the two stroke style Lectron on the 2020 because it's fitment & cost effectiveness for due to the bike's original price point. That style Lectron is called the Gen II Kit: www.mxrevival.com/product-page/lectron-carburetors-two-four-strokes I may be able to request a 2020 SR300 air boot & intake for you while they are still around but I don't know if they will keep making them! Then you can run our regular 2020 style Lectron on the 2021 💪 You can also swap some jets in your stock 2021 carb to get it dialed in as well. There are several jets in that type of carburetor, and the bog can come from jet sizes or a slack in the linkage that is on that style of carburetor. The "leak jet" is usually the culprit with bog off the bottom on the carburetor you have now. You'll need to take it apart & make changes, then ride-test them. You repeat this process until you are happy! It can take time but if you are patient you'll find a good setting. Only issue with a good setting is that sometimes when you ride much higher or lower elevations or there are big temperature differences, the carb can run "off" again when you are not riding in the same areas you first found your good settings. That's why the Lectron is so popular. We set it up for your bike when it's built for you, so it can be used right away. (99% of people do not need to adjust it & 0% of my SSR customers have made adjustments yet) Elevation and temperature changes are no problem for the Lectron either 😎 It just works!

As an Australian-based, international rock/metal band videographer (🤘) who has found a love for dirt bike riding (which I wish I had discovered earlier in my life), I am grateful for your channel. Having recently discovered your TH-cams has helped me better understand cheap Asian-made dirtbikes (which is my starting point) and their pros and cons. I would love to bounce some ideas off you and possibly help improve your videos in exchange for some additional questions, tips, and tricks on my bike journey. Happy to chat more offline if that suits you! :) Let me know where you're based in the US too as I might be able to throw you a couple of rock concert tickets your way!
Hey dude! Really stoked to read that and sorry it has been so long. I am just seeing this comment. Starting to understand that the comments on the back end of my TH-cam that are shown to me, are not every comment in their entirety! Hit me up anytime. 🙌 Would be awesome. www.mxrevival.com/contact
I have same engine that you have, but 250 cc. I do porting on exhaust and intake, for make it more instant flow, and the result is awesome, really diffrent than stock, im using 13 front and 50 rear gear. Its really easy to wheelie first and tirth gir even the frame and subframe was not almunium, the frame was steel. And its realy fun to ride.
So awesome! I got to ride a modded & ported one yesterday! Now I need to do mine too! Killer info, I appreciate your constructive comment. Did you do the port work yourself? -Charles // mXrevival
@@mxrevival thanks a lot sir 🙏 Yeah i do my self on porting the intake and exhaust port, just to the porting little bit, do not to much, just make the flow better that stock, and make flow more fast to go in the silinder from the intake, and for the exhaust port make sure ist really shiny when you porting it, so the rest of carbon and the heat more fast to flow to the pipe exhaust, and dont forget to take of the valve to makeit more easy to do the porting, and after that make sure the valve its not leaked compression when you put it back on the sitting vavle. - Dhay // From Indonesia 👍
@I like colors • 69 years ago i dont but its not hard to see if you look at them next to a honda. a perfect example is looking at an ssr50 next to a crf50
32:08 after some minor tuning/ trouble shooting. It is very responsive and linear. As well as very smooth. Now i wanna see the suspension set to his liking, and weight.
I have this bike for 5 years now and I installed a Keihin FCR carb on it,it came from a KTM SXF,it has an acceleration pump which gives the bike much more power on the low revs,bikes runs awesome,no issue with the engine or frame!
Badass! I rode a pair with FCR swaps a few days ago (video coming next week) and I feel the power increase you're talking about. Thanks for sharing with everyone. -Charles // mXrevival
The Lectron carb has a high speed/load misfire as evidenced by the first test ride. I can hear it clearly. I do not know for sure if it is too rich or too lean, but I suspect too lean. This is because a partial/intermittent lean misfire is more subtle than a rich misfire. The needle should be raised one groove, then reevaluated.
Correction, the needle should be raised 1/4 turn, then test ridden to evaluate if the high speed/load partial/intermittent lean misfire is no longer occurring.
Part of the issue is that although the bike runs much, much better with our Lectron mod- it's still a two stroke style carb on a four stroke engine. This lean condition off bottom is true as there is no low speed fuel circuit such as an accelerator pump/ leak jet like an FCR carb. The ide behind this is the price point. It suits the bike's price point well (VS our four stroke Gen II unit at nearly twice the price). The Lectron has two circuits. The rod & a power jet, so perhaps a lean condition at circuit overlap wherein the power jet screw needs opened just a touch. This circuit is activated by engine vacuum and metered by tapered screw. Rod + 0% - 50% throttle range & PJ 50% - 100% What's really cool is getting my guys at Lectron supply me with carbs to do these tests on Chinese bikes/ figure out these things although hesitant at first. Cool breakdown via audio, J,S.! Thanks for watching 🙏 -Charles // mXrevival
It's a great idea. I was able to get the cover to permanently stay in place by using a good TB brand zip tie 🤜🤛 Thanks for using your head, Mysterious! That was a good one.
Okay I’ve watched all your videos on this bike and it seems like your pretty happy with it... not gonna lie I think I want one now.. good videos brother!!
You sir, are correct! It wouldn't be right otherwise! I'll do the same loop. No suspension changes, etc. Exactly the same just with carb. Getting some amazing email feedback from my SSR customers who've ordered the new Lectron form mXrevival. That's the best.
Killer vid Charles your crushing it with the 300 mods!! Damn man that Lectron really makes yours sing!! Hearing yours after you leaned it out I think I need to go lean my smart carb a little.. Did you ditch that restricted ass air filter cage backfire screen? Pumped on the Elusive graphics in the works, ready to order a set soon as available. Keep killing it bro👊 Sick Ride Moto merch btw🤘🔥
Thanks J! Man I don't know, yours was looking pretty badass in those wheelie videos! No, I didn't pull the filter cage just yet because I'm trying to do things one at a time, in order to get the best description and feel for how each individual mod wakes the bike up or not. I'm always tempted to do it all at once! But I'm going to behave on this bike... Too funny, I was sitting there revving it with the choke on wondering why it was rich! Turned the choke off and so far just perfect. We will see how the trail test goes down but it already runs so much more consistently. Thanks so much for the support brother. Just got a photo from Elusive yesterday of how he templated the radiator shrouds 😍 Appreciate ya!
Mate awesome. I'm watching from a small rural town in Australia. Don't take this as criticism, but to be honest a lectron carbie is more than $1000 Australian dollars. It's about one third of the bikes price. Doesn't really make sense to do it. I was thinking about getting one and do your conversions. Anyway mate keep up the good work. Love your show. Cheers
Thanks for watching! Stoked to have you. No offense taken at all. If your bike runs good, that's prefect. If it doesn't, and you have to spend some cash to fix it anyway- then this makes great sense 🔥
That are not all that great based on my experience. I put mine back on the shelf and went back to stock. I am sure they are great for some, I didn’t like the feel.
mXrevival glad you dig it. The one I tried I didn’t like, different power hit and could never get rid of the detonation. I tried and tried. It sits on my shelf now, at least it looks good.
Too bad the Frame gets in the way of adjustments on an older Honda. I got a Lectron on an 05 CRF250R. Just got it to start for the first time since carb install yesterday. Out of the box adjustments weren’t close enough to get the bike to start. Turned idle up til it would fire, then turned it up some more to keep it running. Today after work I plan to try and dial it in. Just wish it was easier to reach the adjustment screws.If I can get her tuned up and running, it will be the first time in months that I’ll be able to ride my 250. Riding the KX85 was a little lame by comparison.
Dang sounded way more responsive I’m totally interested in trying out there carb on my bike I’m not to familiar with jets and tuning sounds like something I can benefit from good luck with the brakes after adding more power haha 🤙
🤣 We will have a look at yours soon, Sal! Bike definitely runs much better in general. We will have to head out to Hollister and see how we do, huh buddy?
@@joshjewell7089 ya didn’t work out I ended up just getting my original carb rebuilt they gave me a jet pack and like some basic info on tuning so ya works out got new wheels instead lol 🤙
Why do I want one of these bikes? The price is amazing, it looks good, and there are mods for it already. Might have to save for one of these instead of one of the Japanese bikes
Dude, I mean, I'm no different. I had to have this, I wanted people to see it. It's not a high performance machine like the Japanese models of modern-day but it still checks a lot of boxes & would be perfect for most people.
Looks like a must do upgrade. Wish you could have had a dyno before and after, but seat of the pance and now it does roll on power wheelies is petty good proof in the pudding. Maybe some roll racing and drags with other 250f's for comparison sake? Or its chief rival, the newly released efi klx300.
Honestly I can't wait to take this back out. The improvement just here at the shop is so great. I actually called a local shop with a dyno but they weren't interested in the MX thing. They make too much with street bikes to bother with these "one off" dyno needs... as it was described to me anyway... I think it'll take someone who loves bikes like we do that wants to be involved in the first place. That KLX is good looking. Only thing I think that knocks it out for a true comparison is that (like the Honda & Yamaha 230's) the KLX 300 is still not quite a *_full size_* machine like the SSR. It's every bit as large as my RM250 & RMZ450.
I'd love to & I like the way you think! I just rode another 300 w/ a different perch, lever & cable...wow- it almost felt hydraulic. Next video! Thanks for hangin' -Charles // mXrevival
not bad for a play bike.i thought i saw a chevy bowtie emblem on the clutch cover for a second,,but the left side of the cylinder and head looks like a puppys face when shrouds are off.
@@mxrevival bro I love what u do over at mxrevival that hard body and new carb that awesome I need me a ssr 250s I live and breath this bike I’m gone change my China man man because that all I want ride now lol
Man, I know! So get this, the entire trail parks shut down as soon as I go my shrouds back. I am going to have to travel pretty far or get creative with a riding spot. I really wanted the test to be on the exact same trails for a true comparison! Maybe they will open up soon, but it's "top two" right now on my "videos I need to make" list. Thankfully, I'm getting the coolest email from my SSR customers that are using our Lectron & racing hare scrambles with it!! Thanks for hanging in there!
If ur going thru the process of"open up"the breathing to bring that engine to life you should also at least change exhaust,if not whole at least the tip.The header u can easily make one urself with a slightly wider pipe.If u gonna throw more air and gas she needs to breath that out too.You will gain more power and less heat.
On this particular model, it's getting too much air. The airbox design is that of a high performance crf450r, while the engine is the opposite. Not a high performance engine. So we're trying to get this particular machine more fuel to handle all the additional incoming air (which we have been extremely successful with in this case!) In the stock configuration, this bike would actually need the opposite. "Closing off" the breathing. (Stock carburetor). I agree with you in a high performance application
They have SO many bikes... I like the 189. I would put it ahead of a 124 in that, it has a full frame cradle, (you can jump it without the frame backbone bending - like say, a TTR 125) inverted and adjustable suspension, electric start. Just hop in their website
Ive had a problem with using lectrons on my 2 strokes. They are really nice for the bikes i use for racing that get top ends frequently anyways BUT the lectrons definitely shorten the life span of pistons. My air strykers and smart carbs are way way waaaay better than the lectrons
Some guys have reported they do run lean at certain times. They also have a reputation for being able to be “bolted on, and just ride” which some guys, who do need to tune a little bit, just run with. I’ve noticed most of the blow up some failures happen with that crowd of riders’s. It’s the negative side to a positive reputation 🙃
Yep, you can & it's part of the reason the bike struggles. You are exactly correct regarding the low vac at idle that 4 strokes make, thus typically requiring an accelerator pump. Mainly in our newest Lectron solution, the tolerances are much tighter and combined with the CNC cut metering rod, (and no jets to draw fuel through) the vac produced is enough to wake the bike up incredibly after install. We do have another 4 stroke specific Lectron. It also eliminates Jets and accelerator pumps, but due to the price point of this bike initially- we felt that developing this option for the 300 would be in line with the original price point of the bike itself. In other words, this carb is about $475 and the four stroke specific Lectron we carry (which can be used) is closer to $800. So we felt that was the right call for the situation. Increased performance on several levels, elimination of jetting, and a great price are all combined to make the best value for all of my riders. 👊 Really good technical point, thanks for bringing it up Christopher. -Charles // mXrevival
Since the stock carb was a Keihin PWK or a similar Chinese knockoff, I would think you could have jetted it in pretty good without having to spend a bunch of money for a Lectron.
Yes one would think but I wasn't the case with this bike. It has a lot to do with the airbox flowing too much air in conjunction with the wrong carb for the job. It simply didn't run it's best with stock or revised jetting (first video in the series) -Charles // mXrevival
Love your videos. But the dumping fuel in the ground thing… just catch the fuel in a solo cup and put it back in the tank. Fuel in ground water sucks…. Keep up the awesome vids.
When I was still riding I would've loved to try a Lectron but man! I never could afford one... and 4 for my GS1000? No way! I admit I'm an old guy with no experience with the modern 4 strokes, I'm wondering why you didn't fatten up the low end to eliminate the bog and set there idle lower, it seems pretty fast (high) to me?
They do cost a pretty penny, but they do actually work. So, a very nice product overall for the money. I do actually re-jet the bike and it's stock carburetor in video number one. It helped. But at the end of the day it's the improper application for this engine and just wasn't quite the right pairing in order to get more out of the engine, the power that's stuck in there with the stock 2020 carburetor on it. The 2021 drop kicks this old carburetor completely for a fcr clone, or pumper type.
I enjoyed the first video. I’m in Zimbabwe and import taxes for bikes can go as high as 60%+ . I am buying my first bike and it’s a Chinese 259 similar to this. I trained on a 14hp country bike so I want to know what mods I can do to my bike to make it better.
Hi dude! Thank you. I think that you'll be able to make mods just like this with a little creativity. Wow, your custom's fees are crazy.... Thanks for watching, it's a pleasure to have you.
@@mxrevival Thank you. Dude, I’d go as far as calling it an anti-rider policy. We pretty much survive on oldies that the wealthy sell off when they upgrade. They are pretty pricey for the average would be rider & the maintenance costs would be too much. Perfect setting for Chinese companies, like Jia Ling which has establish itself in the 125cc- 150cc country bike market. One of the better ones is ZhongShen which sells new, pretty decent bikes for the same price range as the used Japanese, European bikes ($3,500-$7,000 USD).
@@ShunguRocks Man, used isn't much better here either in regards to cast- ever since co**d and the relentless money printing. Prices on everything are sky high! I agree, enter new Chinese bikes with a lot of accessories ant the same price. They are sold out often currently! Take care out there dude -Charles // mXrevival
I’d be interested in knowing if a larger tank would fit. I think IMS and maybe Acerbis make them for the crf250r, which is what these are based on frame wise apparently. Because I’d like to get a headlight and tail light on mine so I can connect trails without any trouble
Let's do it! If you're nervous & have questions, just email me. Happy to help you find out if it's the right thing for your situation. -Charles // mXrevival
I love the lectron carbs but they are rather expensive... I wanted one for my mini bike but the cheapest one they have is like 600 fucking dollars although I have $100 rod $100 flywheel $100 cam $50 valve spring package $50 flat top piston with rings and a $40 34 mm Chinese knockoff power jet carburetor $400 clutch all packed and stacked on a $99 Predator 6.5 horsepower motor does 65 + mile per hour with only 40% throttle 1 gear 16 tooth in the front 70 tooth in the back 15 in tire my baby cooks and I haven't even ported and Polished the head yet.
Did this bike really not do "forced" wheelies when stock, or was that just an exaggeration to accentuate the power increase u felt from the carb swap? Its rated a 30hp bike, even if thats at the crank not the back wheel(which I suspect is the case). Thats on par with a honda crf250x. My crf 230 i had was not even 20hp at the crank and it would easily pull the front end up with a lil lean back or clutch slip in 1st, in 2nd it would easily pull up still with a lil yank on the bars.
I believe the gearing is very tall in addition to the big bad BOG off the bottom with the stock carb. 2021 will have a pumper carb stock so that'll change. Also, the 230 has a shorter wheelbase, which would more easily allow the front to be brought up. There's a combination of things going on, really. But- I'll always be transparent with you guys. We all stand to gain from truthful chats and reviews together 🤜🤛 So it was a good question. What's misleading are the comments containing opinions regarded as facts (from non-owners always). Thanks for the critical thinking & comment, Nick! -Charles // mXrevival
Very familiar with it & totally agree. Awesome as hell when dialed in, leak jet/ AC pump bog gone, and the linkage mod done. Shredder! The Lectron does a killer job on both 2 & 4 IMO. Have been a dealer for years, and helped a lot of guys out. This was fun, uncharted territory. I like jetting, really. But most guys... well, you know- don't. Thanks for hangin' -Charles // mXrevival
Ok 1st I wanna thank you for the time and effort u put in ur videos! They're awesome and we appreciate them! Now, my question is have u modified the exhaust on yours? Or do u plan to? I have a 2016 450s and cannot find one specifically for it. Now I heard they are very close a clone to the crf honda 450x. And there are plenty of parts for that. But would u say compatible or not even close.?
Hey miyguel, thank you for watching and you are welcome! Sorry I am just now seeing your comment. Yes, I actually ended up doing a pro circuit unit, and that video is in the SSR playlist if you have time, or if you haven't already seen it. I believe there is a pro circuit exhaust specific to your bike as well, may just for ssr. But also the 450 being a Honda clone, as you've stated, will accept Honda exhausts I am almost certain! I was even told by someone who had their sr450 engine apart that they use the same Japanese crank bearings as the Honda. So that was great news.
Im sure lexon carb worth every penny. But what about a cheap keihin carb jetted correctly. Idk lot about 4 strokes never owned one always had 2 strokes. Iv had good luck with keihin air striker ebay carbs. Idk id there clones or not box says made in Japan look authentic probably not though lol!! Any way u know what im saying a little bigger carb without breaking the bank. Great videos always enjoy Thanks Josh G
Thanks Josh! I appreciate your viewership! This bike sort certainly came with a Keihin knock-off but an Air Stryker might be better in it than the stock unit. Hard to tell which ones are real, like you said haha!
Hey, Great video solid change out on the carb! I hope you don't mind me asking I see you have other bikes in your shop and a couple of bead plasters do you have a business working on or restoring bikes? Thanks, Jeff C.

Hi , interesting video. So I presume this is the zongshen 250 motor with the 300 kit fitted by the factory. Ajp motorcycles and Fantic use that motor In their trail bikes which are fuel injected. Not sure if that could be fitted to yours? Or whether that is a to expensive option. The ajp uses the new GET ECU which I believe you can re map. Just a thought. It's interesting how you are getting on with the motor as I was debating buying an ajp motorcycle and fitting the 300 barrel as a lightweight adventure bike. I'm 58 now and although I have a crf450l ,husky701 and ktm250excf am looking for a cheap easy to ride low maintenance bike.
Appreciate that big time 🤘 Thank you. Man I don't know too much about the 250 but I don't think you can go wrong when getting the *_newest machine_* you can! Especially at this price, and with more power/ features. If it were my money I would go for the newest model, the 300s. If that ends up being the case, I'll be doctoring up mods for you guys too- so you can actually do them too, yourselves! Thanks for watching! -Charles // mXrevival

Hello, my question is, have you tried on your bike the FCR33 MX carb?. I did and it's really powerfull but, i don't figure this out yet, how do I connect the TPS on the CDI? Is there some how?? Please advice. Thanks.
Hi Omar, Unfortunately there's no place to plug in any TPS or electrical as the bike's ECU doesn't support it. Even the 2021 with an FCR style carb does not have electronics. You can simply cover up and disregard the TPS connector on your carb swap. Hope that helps! -Charles // mXrevival

Always great stuff my favorite dirt bike guy on TH-cam.
Fantastic narration excellent advice just good stuff.
Really like the SSR stuff not a lot of information out there.
Been thinking about new bike but so much money.
After watching get ur take on the SSR 450 think i see one for me in the future.
Thanks for everything
Keep doing what ur doing ur going far.
Thanks
Josh G.
Thank you for the very kind words! Glad to have you, Josh!
Dude, that is sweet! Lectron you aren't playing. I don't like the carb mount on it. It looks like 32mm, how they get away with no accelerator pump. Small carb can't bog it out with air.
You know it!
Was cool to prototype/ bring this into the SSR world for the guys in need.
It works excellent. The Lectron is a 36mm - and y9ou're right, they don't get away with it 😂 Hence the swap!
But the 2021 will come with a nice pumper carb from the factory. th-cam.com/video/zOUkrH4JonU/w-d-xo.html

OUR LECTRON CARB MOD IS LIVE!! 💪 www.mxrevival.com/product-page/lectron-carburetors-2020-ssr-motorcycles-sr300 THANK YOU ALL FOR THE LOVE & SUPPORT!
Good afternoon. I just purchased the 2021 SSR300 TODAY. Instantly after riding it I was glad I bought it. Great price for the quality of build. However I did pay 4699 which was 200 dollars over MSRP. The dealer said that was the market right now because no one could keep them in stock and they sell as soon as they get them in and they only sent them one this time. I watched your video with the R&D team at the dirt track. I want to purchase the Electron Carb from you and need to know if it would work for the 2021 model. I'm aware they changed the carb and airbox this year. I did notice a slight bog when I blimp the throttle at a lower idle setting. It doesn't do this when I raise the idle a few hundred rpms. Van you offer any advice? Thanks
@@MrBarberselect NICE!! Congratulations on the new bike!
You're right, you can't beat a brand new bike for that price- that's a VERY good deal!
Yes, absolutely, our Lectron Carb Mod will work on the 2021 no problem BUT now that the intake & air boot inlet & outlet sizes have changed for 2021- we need to use the bigger, more expensive Lectron that is for four strokes. We have been using the two stroke style Lectron on the 2020 because it's fitment & cost effectiveness for due to the bike's original price point.
That style Lectron is called the Gen II Kit:
www.mxrevival.com/product-page/lectron-carburetors-two-four-strokes
I may be able to request a 2020 SR300 air boot & intake for you while they are still around but I don't know if they will keep making them! Then you can run our regular 2020 style Lectron on the 2021 💪
You can also swap some jets in your stock 2021 carb to get it dialed in as well. There are several jets in that type of carburetor, and the bog can come from jet sizes or a slack in the linkage that is on that style of carburetor. The "leak jet" is usually the culprit with bog off the bottom on the carburetor you have now.
You'll need to take it apart & make changes, then ride-test them. You repeat this process until you are happy!
It can take time but if you are patient you'll find a good setting.
Only issue with a good setting is that sometimes when you ride much higher or lower elevations or there are big temperature differences, the carb can run "off" again when you are not riding in the same areas you first found your good settings.
That's why the Lectron is so popular. We set it up for your bike when it's built for you, so it can be used right away. (99% of people do not need to adjust it & 0% of my SSR customers have made adjustments yet)
Elevation and temperature changes are no problem for the Lectron either 😎 It just works!
I hope this helps, as it can be a bit confusing - but I'm happy to hep you anytime right here: www.mxrevival.com/contact

I have same engine that you have, but 250 cc. I do porting on exhaust and intake, for make it more instant flow, and the result is awesome, really diffrent than stock, im using 13 front and 50 rear gear. Its really easy to wheelie first and tirth gir even the frame and subframe was not almunium, the frame was steel. And its realy fun to ride.
So awesome!
I got to ride a modded & ported one yesterday! Now I need to do mine too!
Killer info, I appreciate your constructive comment.
Did you do the port work yourself?
-Charles // mXrevival
@@mxrevival thanks a lot sir 🙏
Yeah i do my self on porting the intake and exhaust port, just to the porting little bit, do not to much, just make the flow better that stock, and make flow more fast to go in the silinder from the intake, and for the exhaust port make sure ist really shiny when you porting it, so the rest of carbon and the heat more fast to flow to the pipe exhaust, and dont forget to take of the valve to makeit more easy to do the porting, and after that make sure the valve its not leaked compression when you put it back on the sitting vavle.

32:08 after some minor tuning/ trouble shooting. It is very responsive and linear. As well as very smooth. Now i wanna see the suspension set to his liking, and weight.
I'll be working on that for sure as the days till by! Setups for all owners made easy will be the goal
I have this bike for 5 years now and I installed a Keihin FCR carb on it,it came from a KTM SXF,it has an acceleration pump which gives the bike much more power on the low revs,bikes runs awesome,no issue with the engine or frame!
Badass!
I rode a pair with FCR swaps a few days ago (video coming next week) and I feel the power increase you're talking about.
Thanks for sharing with everyone.

Full throttle, tip it over until gas flows from overflow, will start on first or second kick
You are right in the case of a flooded carb 😉
The Lectron carb has a high speed/load misfire as evidenced by the first test ride. I can hear it clearly. I do not know for sure if it is too rich or too lean, but I suspect too lean. This is because a partial/intermittent lean misfire is more subtle than a rich misfire. The needle should be raised one groove, then reevaluated.
Correction, the needle should be raised 1/4 turn, then test ridden to evaluate if the high speed/load partial/intermittent lean misfire is no longer occurring.
Part of the issue is that although the bike runs much, much better with our Lectron mod- it's still a two stroke style carb on a four stroke engine. This lean condition off bottom is true as there is no low speed fuel circuit such as an accelerator pump/ leak jet like an FCR carb. The ide behind this is the price point. It suits the bike's price point well (VS our four stroke Gen II unit at nearly twice the price).
The Lectron has two circuits. The rod & a power jet, so perhaps a lean condition at circuit overlap wherein the power jet screw needs opened just a touch. This circuit is activated by engine vacuum and metered by tapered screw.
Rod + 0% - 50% throttle range & PJ 50% - 100%
What's really cool is getting my guys at Lectron supply me with carbs to do these tests on Chinese bikes/ figure out these things although hesitant at first.
Cool breakdown via audio, J,S.!

Put a PEACE of heat shrink on the adjuster where it bends on the cable just incase that battery rubber cover comes off itll stop it arking against it

You need to go to that same place where you first took it out in Cali and do a compare test through the trails.
You sir, are correct!
It wouldn't be right otherwise! I'll do the same loop. No suspension changes, etc.
Exactly the same just with carb.

Killer vid Charles your crushing it with the 300 mods!! Damn man that Lectron really makes yours sing!! Hearing yours after you leaned it out I think I need to go lean my smart carb a little.. Did you ditch that restricted ass air filter cage backfire screen? Pumped on the Elusive graphics in the works, ready to order a set soon as available. Keep killing it bro👊 Sick Ride Moto merch btw🤘🔥
Thanks J!
Man I don't know, yours was looking pretty badass in those wheelie videos!
No, I didn't pull the filter cage just yet because I'm trying to do things one at a time, in order to get the best description and feel for how each individual mod wakes the bike up or not. I'm always tempted to do it all at once! But I'm going to behave on this bike...
Too funny, I was sitting there revving it with the choke on wondering why it was rich! Turned the choke off and so far just perfect. We will see how the trail test goes down but it already runs so much more consistently.
Thanks so much for the support brother. Just got a photo from Elusive yesterday of how he templated the radiator shrouds 😍
Appreciate ya!
Put the tip of the spark plug on something metal on the bike while you crank it.
Yes, yes, rookie move! Although wouldn't have mattered this time. Thanks for watching!
Mate awesome. I'm watching from a small rural town in Australia. Don't take this as criticism, but to be honest a lectron carbie is more than $1000 Australian dollars. It's about one third of the bikes price. Doesn't really make sense to do it. I was thinking about getting one and do your conversions.
Anyway mate keep up the good work. Love your show.
Cheers
Thanks for watching! Stoked to have you. No offense taken at all. If your bike runs good, that's prefect. If it doesn't, and you have to spend some cash to fix it anyway- then this makes great sense 🔥
I honestly wondered if those carbs were a gimmick or not. Now I know. Sounds really good now.
And it's just the beginning!
Thanks, Reaper 🤘
That are not all that great based on my experience. I put mine back on the shelf and went back to stock. I am sure they are great for some, I didn’t like the feel.
@@LGguedo It's true, they aren't for everyone. Some guys like to tune and jet. This particular bike though, the SSR...it's great.
mXrevival glad you dig it. The one I tried I didn’t like, different power hit and could never get rid of the detonation. I tried and tried. It sits on my shelf now, at least it looks good.
@@LGguedo no kidding? Where was the detonation occurring? Up top under load?
this bike is like a xr with a mx look
I hope not, even the XR400 wasn’t much quicker than my old TTR225. I test drove the XR, really disappointing machine.
Too bad the Frame gets in the way of adjustments on an older Honda. I got a Lectron on an 05 CRF250R. Just got it to start for the first time since carb install yesterday. Out of the box adjustments weren’t close enough to get the bike to start. Turned idle up til it would fire, then turned it up some more to keep it running. Today after work I plan to try and dial it in. Just wish it was easier to reach the adjustment screws.If I can get her tuned up and running, it will be the first time in months that I’ll be able to ride my 250. Riding the KX85 was a little lame by comparison.
Wow, you vids making me look at this bike more and more! Just might pull the trigger on this one.
You'll dig it, Roland!
Dang sounded way more responsive I’m totally interested in trying out there carb on my bike I’m not to familiar with jets and tuning sounds like something I can benefit from good luck with the brakes after adding more power haha 🤙

Why do I want one of these bikes? The price is amazing, it looks good, and there are mods for it already. Might have to save for one of these instead of one of the Japanese bikes
Dude, I mean, I'm no different. I had to have this, I wanted people to see it. It's not a high performance machine like the Japanese models of modern-day but it still checks a lot of boxes & would be perfect for most people.
Looks like a must do upgrade. Wish you could have had a dyno before and after, but seat of the pance and now it does roll on power wheelies is petty good proof in the pudding. Maybe some roll racing and drags with other 250f's for comparison sake? Or its chief rival, the newly released efi klx300.
Honestly I can't wait to take this back out. The improvement just here at the shop is so great.
I actually called a local shop with a dyno but they weren't interested in the MX thing. They make too much with street bikes to bother with these "one off" dyno needs... as it was described to me anyway...
I think it'll take someone who loves bikes like we do that wants to be involved in the first place.
That KLX is good looking. Only thing I think that knocks it out for a true comparison is that (like the Honda & Yamaha 230's) the KLX 300 is still not quite a *_full size_* machine like the SSR. It's every bit as large as my RM250 & RMZ450.
Super radddd!! Totally exceeding expectations!
Thanks for hangin'!!!
I want to buy one of these and have it played in Arizona. Such a cool bike
Do it!!
You should add a hydraulic clutch as the next mod

The trail test will be too fun
not bad for a play bike.i thought i saw a chevy bowtie emblem on the clutch cover for a second,,but the left side of the cylinder and head looks like a puppys face when shrouds are off.
It should have a carb with an accelerator pump. 300ex ATV carb. I put one on my 1995 KLX250R ran perfect.

@@mxrevival There is an Australian company that builds them turnkey but I don;t think you can buy them here? SO I was thinking about building one.
@@FabiusMaximus1000 We always find a way to do what we love, that's for sure! Hope you do 🤘
If ur going thru the process of"open up"the breathing to bring that engine to life you should also at least change exhaust,if not whole at least the tip.The header u can easily make one urself with a slightly wider pipe.If u gonna throw more air and gas she needs to breath that out too.You will gain more power and less heat.
On this particular model, it's getting too much air. The airbox design is that of a high performance crf450r, while the engine is the opposite. Not a high performance engine. So we're trying to get this particular machine more fuel to handle all the additional incoming air (which we have been extremely successful with in this case!)
In the stock configuration, this bike would actually need the opposite. "Closing off" the breathing. (Stock carburetor).
I agree with you in a high performance application
should throw a yoshimura or fmf some pro taper bars and stuff like that sick bike do you know if they make a 125 big wheel
They have SO many bikes... I like the 189. I would put it ahead of a 124 in that, it has a full frame cradle, (you can jump it without the frame backbone bending - like say, a TTR 125) inverted and adjustable suspension, electric start.
Just hop in their website

thinking about buying one this Wednesday, might go for that carb, first dirt bike don’t know much but guess i’ll learn the hard way a little
Best way to learn stuff! (for me anyway)
Those carbs look sick
that vid was just to cool, looks like a quick take off even in such a short run.
A big improvement 😍
Ive had a problem with using lectrons on my 2 strokes. They are really nice for the bikes i use for racing that get top ends frequently anyways BUT the lectrons definitely shorten the life span of pistons. My air strykers and smart carbs are way way waaaay better than the lectrons
Some guys have reported they do run lean at certain times. They also have a reputation for being able to be “bolted on, and just ride” which some guys, who do need to tune a little bit, just run with.
I’ve noticed most of the blow up some failures happen with that crowd of riders’s.
It’s the negative side to a positive reputation 🙃
I didn't know you could run a 2-stroke carb on a 4-stroke. I thought 4-strokes needed an accelerator pump because the vacuum is not as strong.
Yep, you can & it's part of the reason the bike struggles.
You are exactly correct regarding the low vac at idle that 4 strokes make, thus typically requiring an accelerator pump.
Mainly in our newest Lectron solution, the tolerances are much tighter and combined with the CNC cut metering rod, (and no jets to draw fuel through) the vac produced is enough to wake the bike up incredibly after install.
We do have another 4 stroke specific Lectron. It also eliminates Jets and accelerator pumps, but due to the price point of this bike initially- we felt that developing this option for the 300 would be in line with the original price point of the bike itself.
In other words, this carb is about $475 and the four stroke specific Lectron we carry (which can be used) is closer to $800.
So we felt that was the right call for the situation.
Increased performance on several levels, elimination of jetting, and a great price are all combined to make the best value for all of my riders. 👊
Really good technical point, thanks for bringing it up Christopher.
-Charles // mXrevival
Since the stock carb was a Keihin PWK or a similar Chinese knockoff, I would think you could have jetted it in pretty good without having to spend a bunch of money for a Lectron.
Yes one would think but I wasn't the case with this bike. It has a lot to do with the airbox flowing too much air in conjunction with the wrong carb for the job.
It simply didn't run it's best with stock or revised jetting (first video in the series)
-Charles // mXrevival
Love your videos. But the dumping fuel in the ground thing… just catch the fuel in a solo cup and put it back in the tank. Fuel in ground water sucks…. Keep up the awesome vids.
Thanks dude! Could have been more responsible for sure!
That was awesome man !!!! Keep them coming
I really appreciate that 😎 Thanks did hangin'!
When I was still riding I would've loved to try a Lectron but man!
I never could afford one... and 4 for my GS1000? No way!
I admit I'm an old guy with no experience with the modern 4 strokes, I'm wondering why you didn't fatten up the low end to eliminate the bog and set there idle lower, it seems pretty fast (high) to me?
They do cost a pretty penny, but they do actually work. So, a very nice product overall for the money.
I do actually re-jet the bike and it's stock carburetor in video number one. It helped.
But at the end of the day it's the improper application for this engine and just wasn't quite the right pairing in order to get more out of the engine, the power that's stuck in there with the stock 2020 carburetor on it.
The 2021 drop kicks this old carburetor completely for a fcr clone, or pumper type.

Speaking my language brother!!!
I love the lectron carbs but they are rather expensive... I wanted one for my mini bike but the cheapest one they have is like 600 fucking dollars although I have $100 rod $100 flywheel $100 cam $50 valve spring package $50 flat top piston with rings and a $40 34 mm Chinese knockoff power jet carburetor $400 clutch all packed and stacked on a $99 Predator 6.5 horsepower motor does 65 + mile per hour with only 40% throttle 1 gear 16 tooth in the front 70 tooth in the back 15 in tire my baby cooks and I haven't even ported and Polished the head yet.
Sounds like a killer project!
Our Lectron carbs are only $475 ($600 is too high)
But that's how special projects like yours go, they add up $$$ 💪
Did this bike really not do "forced" wheelies when stock, or was that just an exaggeration to accentuate the power increase u felt from the carb swap? Its rated a 30hp bike, even if thats at the crank not the back wheel(which I suspect is the case). Thats on par with a honda crf250x. My crf 230 i had was not even 20hp at the crank and it would easily pull the front end up with a lil lean back or clutch slip in 1st, in 2nd it would easily pull up still with a lil yank on the bars.
I believe the gearing is very tall in addition to the big bad BOG off the bottom with the stock carb. 2021 will have a pumper carb stock so that'll change.
Also, the 230 has a shorter wheelbase, which would more easily allow the front to be brought up.
There's a combination of things going on, really.
But- I'll always be transparent with you guys.
We all stand to gain from truthful chats and reviews together 🤜🤛
So it was a good question.
What's misleading are the comments containing opinions regarded as facts (from non-owners always).
Thanks for the critical thinking & comment, Nick!

Get a modded FCR carb...Lectron is great for 2 strokes...the FCR will make you scared of the throttle response
Very familiar with it & totally agree.
Awesome as hell when dialed in, leak jet/ AC pump bog gone, and the linkage mod done. Shredder!
The Lectron does a killer job on both 2 & 4 IMO. Have been a dealer for years, and helped a lot of guys out. This was fun, uncharted territory.

Yes, I actually ended up doing a pro circuit unit, and that video is in the SSR playlist if you have time, or if you haven't already seen it. I believe there is a pro circuit exhaust specific to your bike as well, may just for ssr. But also the 450 being a Honda clone, as you've stated, will accept Honda exhausts I am almost certain! I was even told by someone who had their sr450 engine apart that they use the same Japanese crank bearings as the Honda. So that was great news.
Amazing change with this Lectron Carb.
Keep going you doing great job good content 🙂
Thank you very much, and I sure will 🙏
Im sure lexon carb worth every penny.
But what about a cheap keihin carb jetted correctly.
Idk lot about 4 strokes never owned one always had 2 strokes.
Iv had good luck with keihin air striker ebay carbs. Idk id there clones or not box says made in Japan look authentic probably not though lol!!
Any way u know what im saying a little bigger carb without breaking the bank.
Great videos always enjoy
Thanks
Josh G
Thanks Josh! I appreciate your viewership!
This bike sort certainly came with a Keihin knock-off but an Air Stryker might be better in it than the stock unit.
Hard to tell which ones are real, like you said haha!
Hey, Great video solid change out on the carb! I hope you don't mind me asking I see you have other bikes in your shop and a couple of bead plasters do you have a business working on or restoring bikes? Thanks, Jeff C.

Damn, you’re making me consider buying one of these bikes!
No fear, no guilt! Ride what you like my man! Thanks for watching!
Hi , interesting video. So I presume this is the zongshen 250 motor with the 300 kit fitted by the factory. Ajp motorcycles and Fantic use that motor In their trail bikes which are fuel injected. Not sure if that could be fitted to yours? Or whether that is a to expensive option. The ajp uses the new GET ECU which I believe you can re map. Just a thought.
It's interesting how you are getting on with the motor as I was debating buying an ajp motorcycle and fitting the 300 barrel as a lightweight adventure bike. I'm 58 now and although I have a crf450l ,husky701 and ktm250excf am looking for a cheap easy to ride low maintenance bike.
Sounds alot better
and the real question is would you had bought this bike as your first biketo start enduro riding ?
I only wish it was available when I started. It's a gem.
Buying this next week! Great Job!
Hell yeah! Huge congrats, J👊
I'll keep the mods coming for the 300 Crew

Local dealer got a leftover 2019 250S for $3500.. Grab that or spend the extra G for the 300S? The videos rock, keep em coming 🤙🏼
Appreciate that big time 🤘 Thank you.
Man I don't know too much about the 250 but I don't think you can go wrong when getting the *_newest machine_* you can! Especially at this price, and with more power/ features.
If it were my money I would go for the newest model, the 300s. If that ends up being the case, I'll be doctoring up mods for you guys too- so you can actually do them too, yourselves!
Thanks for watching!

Definitely get the 300 the chassis is way more modern the 250 is like a 05 honda the 300 is like a 17
@@randywoodward9707 good feedback. Cool seeing guys help eachother
@@randywoodward9707 I'm convinced, thanks 👍🏼
The suspension actually isn't horrible but it is a little heavy. I picked up some showa's off a 2014 honda they were a direct bolt on and a pretty big improvement
really enjoyed your videos. subscribed💪
Appreciate you!
I got a 2017 ssr250 brand new years ago have always had carb problems
Main hang-up on these for sure!
I'm surprised that SSR doesn't have FI like GPX does.
Same...
Now you need akrapovic
Got a little something like that for her the other day 💪
Nice man I would love for you to ride it and abouse it to see how reliable it is
Your wish is my command 😉
29:35 this thing has the same petcock as my Suzuki AX100. China FTW!
🤣🤣🤣 love it or hate it, huh!
@@mxrevival thanks for doing the video. I found a chinese 250cc mx bike that is right up my ally. Now I feel like a douche for buying a clapped out RM125 for $1600 should have just bought the Chinese bike. My AX100 is made in China (lifan engine) it is a great bike $680 from a dealer in Nicaragua!
@@edmondcharrette8711 wow! So affordable!
Don't feel bad, not a bad price for an rm125 considering the way things are going right now with bike prices!
How did you get that Chinese bike into California? Thought they were not allowed. Would love to get one of these.
Why? 🤷♂️
Here you go, just find your closest dealer- they are everywhere!

Hello, my question is, have you tried on your bike the FCR33 MX carb?. I did and it's really powerfull but, i don't figure this out yet, how do I connect the TPS on the CDI? Is there some how?? Please advice.
Thanks.
Hi Omar,
Unfortunately there's no place to plug in any TPS or electrical as the bike's ECU doesn't support it. Even the 2021 with an FCR style carb does not have electronics.
You can simply cover up and disregard the TPS connector on your carb swap.
Hope that helps!

Me gustan tus vídeos amigo . Por qué no le cambias el CDI por un Racing ? Para que corte las revoluciones y suene como una moto de competencia! CRF, yz F, rmz, etc.
U need to dyno it after all the mods u do and see how much HP it makes then compare how much it cost to a 2020 Honda
I did try to get a dyno run with the stock bike but "it wasn't worth their time" to do dirt bikes 🙃
Was bummed!
Really that stinks. Well at least you tried
Just get a couple of 20 litre containers for all your waste oil and petrol, saves dumping hydrocarbons onto the ground.
Great tip! We definitely contain and recycle the used oil properly. Fuel... still a bit of a scumbag
“The back hole” HAHAHAHAHA
Hello my friend. Question if I may. Can I put this on my Trailmaster Tm38. I think it's the same engine. And what would I need. Thank you.
I believe you can, and I’ve had a few guys with your bike, do the same. But just to double check, send me an email and we will get some pictures of your carburetor so I can make sure. www.mxrevival.com/contact
Nice man
Thanks VIc!
Why was there a ‘seal’ staring at me as you remove the carburettor?
I "sea" what you did there...
