Just get the fucking lectron.... This looks so complicated
Agree.
one cost way less though lol... and that isnt that hard of a process its honestly quite simple
@@tuckerbmx you might be simple
@@tuckerbmx it’s not hard to rejet stock carb. But the lectron is the bees knees. You never have to mess with it. You can ride from Canada to pikes peak and down to the gulf coast. And not have any issues. Plus it gives more power.
Yeah I would love the lectron if I could justify the price its definitely worth for sure but I'm not super rich so I just try to replace parts when I feel its time lol. By the way jon love your video been watching for a few years now🤘

Gladius Jon even though it says for the header that it's for up to the 2010 model it still fits the 2017? Plan to buy the 2017 soon
Hey I just bought a leftover 2018 supermoto. Does this make a big difference in noticed power?
@@PatriotGearReviewsCt big difference in power, as virtually all DRZ400S and SM are the same, regardless of year (except for SM having different suspension/tires/rims/brakes than S and lower ride height). Carbs are all the same, except for the DRZ400E model which is not street legal in US/Canada and has a larger, different style carb.
Drill bit size?
where do you get a jis screw driver?
Wow! this is one of the best tutorials I have watched on DRZ mods. Excellent explanations and instructions as well as filming(in HD) and editing. I plan on doing these exact mods except I plan to cut down the FMF powercore about 6" just for looks, but I doubt that will effect the jetting. Thanks for making an awesome tutorial!
Great editing, straight to the point. This video will help me in the future. Thanks bro!!
Just picked up my 2006 DRZ400s yesterday that already has most of the mods I see online. It's nice to have your videos to refer to for adjustments and inspections. Thank you for taking the time! I'll be doing the oil change in a couple hours before I even ride it for the first time, and your oil change video makes it super simple.
Just did my jet kit install today and this video helped out so much.. didn’t even need the paper to read the instructions. Thanks brotha!
That's the first video I've seen of a carb being jetted while still on the bike lol
Is that not a good idea? I’m new to this, should I take it off?
@@waltz9230 it's up to u...
Thanks for the video. First time working on a carb. Did a k&n filter, 3x3 mod, jd jet kit, and an rs2 exhaust today. Took me about 2 hours and I left the carb on. Had to remove the throttle cables to turn it. Used a chisel to turn the screws like doing a Honda car brake rotor screw.
great instructions, you weren’t kidding about the JIS bits... I ended up getting a single screw out, had to use extractor bits for all the other screws, between the weird bit and the soft metal, it was a total disaster.
Thanks for the informative walk threw 🤘🏻
Glad it helped!
Fast, informative, covered everything with perfect audio, great video!
Just installed my JD jet kit, Yoshi exhaust and 3x3 mod. Your video was a huge help. Thanks a lot man!!!
Yea man no prob!
best 3x3 mod video by far, congrats on the new bike man. I just bought a 2015 leftover drz400s model in march and just ordered exhaust, jet kit, and plan to do the 3x3. awesome video! 👍
Thank you! I really do appreciate that! THis video was one of the Hardest Videos I have edited. Congratz on the drz btw!
Awesome video, followed exactly, just finished my 2018 DRZ400 SM. You helped make the install much easier......
Glad it helped!
Good video, just got my first drz and all the other videos are confusing, you made it clear and informative!
I recently bought a 2017 drz400sm. I love it! I got a yoshimura exhaust and JD jet kit in the mail yesterday so this video is very helpful. Thanks and great videos.
Same thing here. Just ordered the yosh and JD kit yesterday for my '17, I'm thinking those two and the air box mod is needed! Just not enough power stock, for me at least. How was the install for you? Any thing I should look out for with the exhaust?
Still the best 3x3 Jet Video out here! Thank you!
What if you live in low altitude but hot temperatures?
move the cap on jet needle
ive been tossing around just buying 155/25 jets from dealer for like $6 each, but after watching this and the amazon comment I may pull the JD trigger👍
Another great video ! that DRZ looked brand new !
When I need to rebuild my bike, I'm calling you. Nice job brother.
Just holler when you need. Thanks man.
Brings back memories watching these mods. Nice video!
Thanks man!
I have a 2018 DRZ400SM, jd kit, 3x3, full MRD system. Followed the directions then followed the video here, having a hell of a time getting it right...
Yea man me too my bike is now slower then a stock 2020 drz400 I've swapped the jets so many times started at 170 lik the kit said bike was slow so went to 160 still slow went to 155 and now at the 150 nothing really seems to help I've also moved the blue needle clip from the 4th position to the 3rd then the 2nd and my air mixture screw I've adjusted from 1 turn out to 3.5 turns out no matter what I did the bike is still slower then stock and it gets a pop/ backfire every time I shift. I'm ready to drop it off at a shop.
Interesting that you did the work with the Carb still mounted. Maybe I’ll try it that way too
Oh hell yes!!
Awesome job on the details! I like your channel way better now that you have removed the F bombs. Keep up the good work fellow brapster.
Thank you, I have Cut Back on the F bombs. But haven't removed them. I know its offensive to some, I work in a shop so cursing is natural to me.
I understand, and you clearly have very thoughtful things to say! I appreciate your efforts and your channel. Peace!
You have said “ go ahead” a hundred times. Its really annoying!!!!
Awesome videos. I want to buy one of these when I get back from deployment
Do it! Thank you for your service btw. Some of us back home still pray ever night for the safe return of our brothers and sisters.
This is a minor point, but one of the things that makes this video stand out is that you're NOT saying uh and ummm every 3rd word!!! Otherwise, a great video on its own merits.
Best 3x3 mod video I’ve ever seen
Just subbed man love the channel and really wanting one of these bikes now
They are awesome for sure. Thanks man!
1000 degree knife vs DRZ
rofl
You make it look so easy. Awesome video.
I've never seen anyone elsse do this with the carburator still IN THE FRAME. Seems much easier! Good tip, thanks.
I used a razor blade in a set of vice grips and just used a hot gun ( paint stripper gun ) i heated the plastic and just run the blade thru the plastic looked gret clean cut and easy as
My Kit just shipped. Thanks so much for the video cant wait to follow along while i do it myself.
Crsh0vrride Awesome! just holler if you have any questions
Dude this is such an awesome, helpful video. I bought a 2015 DRZ400sm, I have everything lined up to install, and having someone give the rundown is a cool thing to do for other riders so thank you. Would you do this set up all over, or skip to the FCR39 now that you have experienced both?
hehe, No prob! To be honest If I had the the $500 cash to drop on the FCR I would skip the JD jet Kit for the Stock Carb. But If I had to save up the $500. I would say the JD Jet kit is still worth it. You do get really good gains on stock carb.
Sweet i'll take that into consideration. Keep the cool vids coming, I get to live vicariously through them in PNW during the shit riding season!
Literally the best video for this.
Awesome stuff my friend, thanks for sharing and If i do any of the mods I will follow your links my friend Thanks again for making great videos and keep up the great work.
Have a blessed week.
Brilliant, not removing the carburator!!!!
You have the powerbomb with powercore 4. I plan on using the powerbomb with a Q4. Think the 155 with blue needle will work good. Summers here so half tempted to use the red needle. Going to be plenty of days over 80.
Once again, A very great video!!!! Thanks a million man!!! I cant wait to do this to my DRZ!!!!
Thanks Bro!
Excellent, to the point video!! Thanks for the how to..
I was waiting getting my cart ready for checkout but noticed that amazons (check fit) for the powercore 4 and powerbomb header on the DRZ says “ this item will NOT fit my 2015 Drz400sm. The amazon page alone it says will fit Up to 2019. I’m a little confused....
Is it simply because it’s a S model and not an sm model? I want to support your channel but I need some clarification before I checkout.
Very informative video! Thank you for taking the time and making it.
I appreciate it! It should fit from 2002-2019. No changes have been made to the drz after 02.
Gladius Jon Thank you! I may be adding some things to the cart in the coming days ;)
Awesome vid. Are u planning on doing hot cams as well for a few more hp ?
Absolutely! Will be next spring tho.
What made you choose clip position 4? My kit says to start with 3. Thanks for the great video!
well pushing firmly led to it popping out the first two times. third time i pushed a bit harder and broke 2 of the 4 clips in the slide. $60 mistake...
great vid, the only thing your missing is a link to a company who sells the real JIS B 4633 drivers. The only company in the world who sells them is : "SUNFLAG" Shinki Manufacturing LTD in Japan.
I just order a set on Amazon, hope they are the real thing.
Awesome video, best jet kit install vid. thanks keep up the vids, i just bought mine in early September
Thanks man! and Congratz!
So how different did it ride? Did i miss that?
Hey Jon, I live in Tennessee it has 900 FT elevation for an average. But I plan on taking it to the mountains every once in awhile and East Tennessee where it can reach up to 5000 ft elevation. Should I run a 160 jet and just play with the air/ fuel screw when I head out that way?
subbed for the good info and easy to follow! Thanks man!
Buy a pack of swival adapters... Youll use them forever 👍
Hey man I'm thinking about getting a drz400 to run in the summer! what jet kit would you go with since I live in pennsylvania? the temperature and humidity always changes here haha
Get the JD Jet Kit. Im in VA, we have roughly the same Climate. Works Great for me.
What exhaust do you have!?! It sounds awesome!
Hi Gladius did you remove that Evap by chance got a video on it?
Did not have one from factory in 2017. Suzuki added it on in 19 or 20 for euro 5 emissions.
@@GladiusJon I need to find a cover plate to get rid of that mess thank you for replying : )
Thanks so much for the video!!
Your welcome!
Great video, no BS right to the point!
Great video was wondering if I could do it on the bike. Sound like it revs out quick. Pulls hard. I'm gonna do the same kit thanks
What kind of horsepower gains can you expect from all these mods together?
I think you're around 40 horsepower to the tire with all those mods I can't remember but I'm pretty sure that's around there the bikes run good from the factory they really do but the 3X3 mod the Jets and a good pipe really wake it up don't they
Did it run alot better,than stock
Thanks for the video. I’m having trouble seating the needle retainer in the slide. Does it pop in there? There are four tabs and I don’t know how far it needs to go in those tabs
will any dealer shops do this type of work or do you have to go to a offroad type shop
Just got a drz400s are there power gain upgrades my bike already jetted and 3x3 mod. I'm subbed
Why did you use the 160 Main Jet and not the recommended 170? My instructions say to use the 170
I just bought a drz400sm 2018 with 1500 miles. It has yoshi pipe and 3x3 mod. I was told it was jetted. The prob I have is at high rpms holding throttle 55-90 mph the motor or carb feels on/off sputter slightly like somethings choking it of fuel a lil. I want to tear off carb n check things. Any suggestions? It runs great otherwise
ho thanks for the video! I have the JDS005 kit for my DRZ 400S but I want to ask you what jet I can install to have the best results for off road use (I have also a Akrapovic Titanium exhaust so it's more open ) thanks!
160 main will do well.
Gladius Jon thanks!
Hope I made u some money. I got the jet kit. Pipe. And header. From your links. And just finished the jet kit. And 3x3 mod. Header and pipe not shipped to my house yet.
Thank you, I really do appreciate that man! It really helps big time. You will love it man, its like a new bike!
Gladius Jon man your the only person to not take the carb all the way off. I did it like you did. Not to bad. Ready for this damn pipe and header. I live in N.C and shipping is delayed due to hurricane. Nice video.
Yea, I was wondering why everyone takes the carb off. Im an Automotive Technician by profession. Short cuts make or break beating book times.
Great how to video, I just bought a 2017 drz400sm myself. If i got the jd kit with stock exhaust, but did 3x3 and got a k&n filter should i still go with a 160 main jet? I'm also around 400 ft elevation.
Thats a great question. I would start off with the 160, and the Blue needle in the 4th position. . The issue i see tho, is with the stock exhaust. Your corking the Air Flow. Being your allowing a ton of air in (3x3) and A ton of fuel in (160 main). But your corked coming out. (Exhaust). Once you install, test and see if your running rich or lean. You can Remove the Air Box door once the bike is fully up to temp. If It runs better, your too Rich (Drop to a 155 Main). If it runs Worse, you may have it just right, or too lean. Run the Test Under Wide Open Throttle. For Further Tuning Search "AirBox Door Test" on Thumper talk.
Gladius Jon Thanks for the reply. Maybe I'll just wait until I upgrade the exhaust, I plan on getting the mrd exhaust. I'll just do all of it at the same time.
I ended up jetting my drz this past weekend, and holy crap what a difference it made. So much smoother accelerating and the throttle response is nice. It is a lot louder too because of the more open intake. The only problem I had was with one of the JIS screws stripping, and I even had a JIS screwdriver!! I had to rotate the carb the other way (it was one of the back screws) and use a dremel to grind a groove into the head to use a flathead screwdriver. I still have the stock exhaust, the JD jet kit said to just go with the 155 main, blue needle on the 3rd from top groove, and it runs great!
wildcard252 Awesome! Glad you got it worked out. It really is the best bang for buck!
I will do the same, Nice to know that it worked well!
So if you choose the blue needle because you live below 4000ft, can i i still ride to the moutains between 5000-8000ft
you dont have to remove the carb when you do that first needle?
No, not unless you strip the crappy screw coming out. You can rotate the carb by loosening up the reusable zip ties on the frame.
What altitude do you normally ride at? why did you drop the clip 1 position on the needle?
Do you know what the o-ring on the top part of the Carb is for? The one you say the bike won’t run if you loose it.
Your right those bottom screws on the carb are a PAIN. I stripped back 2. Any suggestions before I remove the whole carb and drill the screws out?
Mubatsjc honestly no. you pretty much have no choice at this point.
Gladius Jon Damn. Well wish me luck! Thanks for the reply!
Mubatsjc It sucks i know hehe. i got lucky an striped the front one. Good luck!
Gladius Jon Yeah haha thanks!
Hey Jon, did you use that huge aluminum spacer when you mounted the muffler to the rear mount? I used the stepped aluminum spacer, but I couldn't make that one fit in between the muffler strap bracket and the rear mount point. I have the same model year and just installed the same exhaust!
What I did was I took the Rubber Bushing out. Installed the Stepped Aluminum Washer Through the Inner Side of the Mounting Hole. (Fender well). Skinny Side through Hole. And Used The Long Bolt with a few washers.
Let me Know if you need. Ill take a Pic tomorrow.
what is this 3x3 mod thing? can i do this to my DRZ400 E?! My carb is a 39... thank you very much!
and by the way, I have a Leovince X3...is there any powerbomb for this??
By Doing the 3 by 3 mod does the DRZ consume more fuel now? Get lower milage? Thanks Mate
Actually it only slightly affected fuel milage at a steady pace.
The barely noticable decrease was from giving more fuel to those extra ponies there near the power curves.
Power curves
On a graph or on a road or on a trail... : )
Which needle would I use for NC piedmont area but will be going to Blue Ridge mountains a lot...?
How long to prime? I started it up but dies off only stays on if I have the choke mid out?
I have a slip on.should i go with 160 or 155 main jet?
i got the jd kit for my 16 sm, any quick tips for my first time jetting a carb?
What does jetting do to your bike and can u leave the snorkel out
Thank you for the video, but I'm having trouble shifting the carb around. Did you loosen both hose clamps on the front of the carb or just the front and back ones on the left side? My throttle cables have barely any give and I can't get the carb anywhere tilted enough to remove the JIS screws.
Just the Front and back one, Not the One closest to the engine. Have you loosen the Zip tie that holds the cables to the frame?
I ended up just yanking the bitch out entirely, made drilling those screws easier anyway
So I'm at 469 for elevation, but it's 100 degrees F with 54%. Do I use the Red needle or Blue for the summer? Doubt you see this but worth a shot
I would try the red needle, with that heat and humidity gota lean it out a little.
hey im getting my drz400sm on may cant waiiitt!
I have a suzuki drz 400 sm 2021 I want to change my jet for carburetor I need someone to help me where I can get it and which model
Why did you use the 160 main jet when the instructions say use the 170 with a full exhaust?
Because 170 was too rich.
Go ahead!
Dude invest in a Dremel for cutting plastic !
i have similar tires did you ride at the end of the video with those street tires???? i am so scared to go mudding in these tires with my friends
MrLink129 yeah that was some serious offroading on street tires. I wipe out every time I go in the mud or grass on street tires. Luckily theres no damage to the bike most of the time.
Hi.what main jet size should i go with a yoshi slip on exhaust?stock header.please help
Hi just wondering what your advice would be on whether I should choose the red or blue needle. Depending on the season, I would normally ride between 50 deg F to 100 deg F... humidity is usualy above 50% BUT I only live at sea level and will never really go above 3000ft so that would mean I should use the blue needle but every thing else suggests i should use the red.
I seem to be somewhere between which is confusing me haha.
Also how do you choose what position to put the clip on?
Thanks in advance!! :)
phil2468101214 The blue needle richens the muxture. cooler less humid air is more dense air, requiring more fuel. So the blue will be optimal under 70 deg F. I say it boils down to averages. Do you ride more above or below 70 deg F. If above go with the red. As far as clip positions. I dont remember off hand the technical reason why I selected the 4th position. Mine seems to run better in quarter to three quarter throttle. with the clip in 4th tho.
Gladius Jon awesome! Thank you. I'll order my jet kit tonight :) did you also do the pair and solenoid removal too? Thanks for your super fast reply too!
phil2468101214 Your welcome! I have not done those yet. I plan on upgrading to fcr39 shortly so ill be doing it then.
Do u have to do the jet kit if u do the 3×3 mod?
I got a 16 drz400sm, same model as yours though and the owner put in a yoshi exhaust but he said he didn't rejet? However the brass plug for the carb where the fuel screw is, is not there? Not sure what the go is
Thats definitely strange. Possibly he drilled it out to tweak the factorie fuel screw.
Question!!! I got the Jet kit, and complete exhaust system. Since my bike was brand new the dealer wouldn't do the 3X3 mod. I didn't feel comfortable doing it till the " Break in " period was done. NOW SHES DONE!!! BOO YAH. My question is, I pulled the snorkel out of the air box, does the 3X3 make that much more of a difference?
Thanks again.
It honestly Does make a big Difference. Removing the snorkel only uncorks it slightly.
Gladius Jon alrighty then. I’m home in a few days and I’m just gonna do it.
Thanks.
OMFG!!!!! I just did the 3X3 ( jets and exhaust already done ) I have to say I was VERY nervous to cut my baby up. BUT its ALIVE!!!! Wow you were spot on good sir.
I really can’t believe how massive of a difference it made. It’s unreal.
Tomorrow I’m going down to the auto parts store and grabbing some flame stickers can you imagine the 10 extra horses those stickers will add on top of my new found power??
Thanks again for all your help. BOO YAH!!!
hahaha Hell yea!! 15hp for the Flame ones!!! 😂
Glad I could help, Stay safe bro!
Just ordered the kit, im around 870ft of elevation running a yosh rs2, aftermarket filter and will be doing the 3x3 what main jet should i run?
155 main
What is the name of the o ring that if you loose it bike wont start?
hi i have the same drz 400 when you did this job in the carburetor do you fill the different on the power of the motorcycle or not too much???
Yes it was definitely worth it!
I know u didn’t have those tires on it when riding at the end
Blue needle and #25 pilot. What did you use for a Main jet? #155 or #160?
what elevation?
Where is the link to the pipe. I see the jets and header
I just added it, thank you! I do appreciate it!
I'm going on a trip from Norway to Georgia. So, which needle I need? Altitudes are anywhere from 500 to 6500.. It's a mixture of high and low.. How do I decide the needle color? :(
David Mumladze set it for sea level. As you climb the air will be less dense and it will richen up. It’s better to run fat at the top of mountains then to run lean at the base.
@@GladiusJon Got it. Blue needle that is... Thanks.
Should I trust a used drz with these mods?
Depends on if it was maintained. My buddie bought a used one an got 20,000. Miles out of it
What size drill bit did you use?
