Re: Jetting in 210

Hi Rosscla, i have a 220 using old spec kit. I had a proper merry dance setting up my 24/24 carb. Although i am using the 24/24G T5 Carb. It is sweet as now. I am working today but could check my jetting etc and get back to you on Sunday if any good to you?

Thanks gents. I have a Mikuni pump with a 5mm bore pulse inlet. The hosetail i got from SiP is a Polini item with only a 3.7mm bore. I am thinking match the hosetail bore to the pump inlet size? Any experience or views greatly appreciated.

Re: Scootering mag Apologies

I stopped buying it about two years ago, too many ads and I am not interested in how to guides of basic repairs.
