    The big problem you all were having with the other carbs is it’s not the jets I do a lot of two stroke conversion if you don’t get the angle of the carb to match the bike it came from the floats don’t work as they should and this causes a bog because your basically starving the bike of fuel with these two stroke conversion into a four stroke frame always take a it to get the float height right

      at least KTM did the R&D on their own pipe so it would have run right. I expect this custom pipe was most of the problem. way more science in 2-stroke pipes than most realize (sonic wave backpressure at precise RPM range under full load for proper exhaust scavenging).

I've got very good results with the v-force4, a hgs exhaust and a jd-jetting Kit with the original carb. No bogging anymore and very crispy.

    Just my opinion but.. on my 20 ktm 250sx I purchased new, I had issues from day 1 with jetting.. and if your reeds are stock, I would bet that’s your issue. KTM reeds have been known to be defective from the factory.. mine were.. I replaced stock with a boyeson rad valve and JD jetting kit. Huge improvement!! night and day…I understand the event is over, but if you’re going to keep the bike I’d give that a try as it’s a KTM motor. 🤙

    I’ve got that same stank dog mentality. Anytime I could help my competition with something I did. because I was racing dirt bikes against myself trying to be the best I could be. But downside of KTM trying to save a dollar I guess that’s why they went to Mikuni. I’ve had 28 KTM‘s and you could not beat that Keihin carburetor that came on the bikes. once he gets a Keihin on there will probably be ok. and actually for a walk that bike is 14 K it’s probably not a bad price.

      @@farquadmantis8486 well the videos it didn't look like it was cutting out, and they were revving the shit out of it. I think every bike I've owned bogged a little when going full throttle. I broke my back and quit riding before fuel injection though

      Yea the issue is you can’t have that on Supercross style obstacles. Far too dangerous and timing needs to be completely perfect 👍🏼

      @@AjCatanzaro I get that 100%, I'm just confused how it was bogging? Like when you went from no throttle to full throttle? That track looked scary, especially that huge table, so I get why you need a perfect bike. I just don't understand where the bog was from watching the video

      A well jetted 125 should rip without hesitation. I'm sure they can sort it out with more time. Bike looks sick!

    The curse of the frankinbike. You just can't put a pumpkin heart in a Honda and think it will work. It will reject the Donner heart and try and kill you. As you found out.

    It has to be something with air box and it not getting enough air 🤔
