Im interested in the carb but am curious about the jetting. I have an '03 Honda CR250 and want to know if appropriate jets come with the carb.

The carb comes with jets, and the existing carb jets should fit if it's a stock carb.

The carb comes with a 170 main jet and a 55 idle jet. I put this on a restored1988 Cr250r . It was a huge improvement. Well worth it. I ended up going up one jet to 172 on the main and 58 on the idle jet. I like my bikes a little rich. Check out pjmotosports.com they sell these carbs prejetted for your year make and model. I prefered to save money and buy it on amazon since I already had some jets laying around. You could do the same if you are confident with jetting your own bike. Or buy one prejetted.

I have a ktm 300 and the jets and needle were no where close to mine I think it was a 50 pj, 180 mj don't recall the needle you should just plan on jetting it yourself as most carbs are not jetted to a specific bike.

I can't recall if they were included. I bought the carb and it worked great. I then sold it.

It is a generic description. The one for the honda shadow doesn't come with a jet kit.

Yes i recently purchased this carb. It was easy to install . Look up the carb settings. I started at 1 1/2 turns on low and high adjustment and fine tuned from there. Might want to replace fuel lines at same tlme

upon putting this on my 96 cr250 which used a keihin already just not the better airstriker, I took the needle and all the jets out of my existing carb and it's spot on jetting and run great.

There are various versions of the VM38 carb. The VM38-9 was set up by Jerry Branch [Google the name if unfamiliar] in the 60s or 70s specifically for stock Harley Davidson 900cc and 1000cc IronHead motorcycles. This includes any or all of Main Jet : 330, Pilot Jet : 30, Needle Jet : Q-2, Throttle Valve : 2.5, Jet Needle : 6DP1, Air Jet : 0.5 You may need to change any or all of these. Only another XS650 owner who has done this would know. I have one on my 1978 IronHead - runs perfect right out of the box, no tuning needed at all.

I had to tweak the carb on my 06 Sporty. If you have EFI then it too will need some tweaking. And I installed Screamin' Eagle air kit. More power instantly and way more responsive. If you do one you gotta do em all.

It came stock with a spreadbore quadrajet which is a great carburetor. Small primaries for excellent cruising fuel economy and huge secondaries for building lots of high end horsepower. A spread bore Holley is the next best or best depending on the cam and intake manifold. I do like vacuum operated secondaries, electric choke. Mechanical secondaries require a double pumper so that the engine won't stall on rapid throttle changes do to fuel starvation. Another option is a four barrel Holley throttle body fuel injection setup

I sold my unit and bought another brand, so I have nothing to look at to help you. Your best bet might to to find one on display at a store and look at it or check youtube. There are carb rebuild videos on youtube.

Of course. Has nothing to do with carb standards. However, ive had this kit for about a year and a half, ive had to change the hoses because over time they will leak at the crimp. Other than that great kit.

I would tend to agree. I have to use starter fluid and carb cleaner each time I use the generator to get it running. It's almost brand new.

I have a 2001 SeaDoo XP which is the same 951 engine as yours, but carbureted. I rebuilt the top end on it and had great compression (150psi), so i put this 15/20 solas prop on it after reading how its the be best prop for the 951 engine. (look for bens secret 951 engine mods on Greenhulk) Now i also put a solas intake grate on, which helps the hookup in chop, but Man o man what a difference this prop made for me. Great holeshot, but HUGE difference in mid range powerband. I am still grinning ear to ear. I still top out at 62mph, but some of my top end is scrubbed by the intake. Again though. .. I had a solid top end rebuild with 150psi compression, and my engine was turning 6850-6950 rpms. 15/20 is actually a little over-propped without other mods, but my engine is stock. Just Molly coated positions and mikuni rebuild kits on the carbs. If your engine isn't turning 6800 rpm+ and your compression isn't great, you might back off and get 13/19. I have a 13/19 solas on my ZXi 1100 and love it. Same midrange powerband and holeshot over stock. Just make sure you get the right model for your ski...

To the best of my knowledge the carb setup is the same on this line of Briggs engine. FYI if you purchase this carb do yourself a favor by attaching the throttle cable prior to installing the carb on the engine. If you don't you will buggar up the cable assembly.

Jesse, dont know what actual speed it may achieve, with no modifications, appears you must drill main jet carb out to somewhere around .039 to. 043 to eliminate hesitation , if you attempt to race it. Then u must remove governor.! This is stuff that i have heard and read on social networks. No experience myself

Absolutely need to rejet. Exact sizing depends on altitude check Fmf's website for approx recommendation. The jets that are in your old carb should be closer than what is in this one.

It may need warranty work . I would call husquarvana. When I spoke with customer service they told me they are having problems with the carburetor on this model .they will give you a list of people in the area that are authorized to do the work .
