Here is a quick tutorial on how to change your needle position on your Husqvarna TX 300. It should be very similar for other brands and models of 2 stroke dirt bikes. I hope this video is helpful to you! If you're interested in more maintenance tips, check out my maintenance playlist! Thanks for your support :).
Thanks champion! This was the only vid I could find on TH-cam that ACTUALLY showed how to remove the needle!
This was so helpful that I decided to go do mine at 1am lol. Thanks 🤟🏼
What a pleasant surprise to see you, Megs, on a mechanical vid. Wasn't expecting that.
What a great presentation you made of this task. First class
I could have figured it out on my own but not easily, you saved me a lot of time, thank you!
Thanks Megs for making a great tutorial on needle position for the carb! I definitely have a better understanding after watching your video. P.S. Shout out from Sea to Sky Country, thats where I reside and love to ride my dualsport!
Rhys Harder No problem! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment :). I always appreciate it!
Thank you, exactly the help I needed.
Yes me too. 🙏🏻 thanks a bunch
Invaluation info Megs. Been following this while reassembling my carb. Forgot to locate the plastic piece at the bottom on the spring. Lucky I watched your video again!
You need to explain what the change in clip position does and why you are changing it.
Raising the clip position lowers the needle and leans the mixture out.
Thanks for that. That's actually why I'm here lol
yup
Yes, exactly. That’s the info I am searching for. Not sure why she wouldn’t explain the point of changing the needle clip.
Very nice taking the carb off the bike.
Made for much better views and people can actually see the carb slide, not just a half shot of the bike frame.
Recognized that red topped needle. High altitude.
Keep up the good work!
Please make a long term review of your bike. It would be fun to hear how it's like to have owned a Tx300 for over a year.
nice vid, 40yrs old and Im gonna do this for the first time today. lol
Just what I needed to know 👍🏴
You have many skills Meg! Good job.
enjoying your videos there have been really helpful to me as iam new to freeriding so keep up the good work meg
Julian Waller Thanks Julian! Your views and comments are much appreciated :).
girl, I was trying to get a wrench on that retaining nut through the spring 😬 thank you.
Oh no haha! Im so happy I could help!
I just switched over to a lectron I had no probs adjusting I just never could get it exactly where I wanted went ahead and tried the lectron and it made such an improvement that I’ll probably be leaving it on! Good video though I enjoy everything you do thanks!
Mike M
whats a lectron?
Great tutorial, thank you Meg!
great video! I wasn't used to this type of slide
I've done it before, and then I go like... Uhhh, how did I do it? Thanks, your calm way of explaining helped a lot.
just what a needed to learn legend ty
Nice and comprehensive! Good stuff.
Clean and simple! Thanks!
Very helpful. Thank you!
1:04 i thought you were gonna say, "I'm gonna take this off with my bare hands."
Me: 0.o
Megs is superhuman can confirm
Jim R 😂😂😂
I have a 98 rm250 and can’t get
It to idle I’ve cleaned and rebuilt the carb and changed spark plug and the air filter will this help? recommended clip position?
Thanks for the vid..exactly what i needed!!
Thank you Meg, helped me not break things due to impatience :-)
I was about to buy a whole new carb I had no idea you could change the needle. I bent it while take out a stripped jet 😅
Nice tutorial mate, good on ya👍
Thanks for the video. 🎉
Forceps, used for fishing and surgery, are a really helpful tool to keep the throttle cable in place when you go to thread it into the needle clip slot. But as a lot of people have commented I'd recommend ditching the stock carb for a Lectron, which basically negates the need for any jetting changes aside from some simple, no-disassembly-required adjusting.
Great video....Thanks
Awesome vid!
I got one question, is the needle okay if it wiggles a little after you put the 6mm in?
I know this response is way late but for people wondering in the future: Yes that’s totally fine! The needle should wiggle.
Thanks a lot for the vid 💜💜💜💜
I have a 2000 rm125 and it’s not working for me are you able to help me
Great video.
Thank you.
Is this position for higher petrol or lean?
Top Class skills.
Congrats.
I accidentally spun the retaining nut and theres no slot for the cable to come out of
Loved the vid don’t know why there isn’t more people like you on TH-cam showing things like that 👍🏻
Lectron is the way to go, never had to screw around with a carb ever again
wow those are some serious posts!
Awesome Sauce 💯
Might want to rename the video. Mikuni TMX 38 is also in KTM and other bikes.
You are really a tough girl megs
Nice video...too bad it doesn't help me with my own bike... :( different design.
👌👍
What were the conditions (temp-elevation) needed to change from 4th to 2nd on the clip position? Was the bike behaving wrong?
Also, I am slightly anal, sorry, but the correct term is "hex key". It took me YEARS to break the habit of calling them by their old trademarked name Allen Keys. LOL. Great video.
Not Tellinya I was just changing the clip position for the purpose of making the video. But lowering the needle (raising the clip position) would make the bike run leaner in the mid range. The needle position affects from about a 1/4 throttle to about 3/4 throttle.
Wifed 😍

Aaah haha thats the worst. Looks like it was filmed with a potato.

فيديو انسه رائع جدا جميل
I’m having trouble on getting the screw back into the original spot 😢, I have it about 20 degrees off
Very nice taking the carb off the bike.
Made for much better views and people can actually see the carb slide, not just a half shot of the bike frame.
Recognized that red topped needle. High altitude.
Keep up the good work!
