The carb came from TC racing. You have to modify a few things for it to fit ( trade off for a cheaper carb $250).

1) Move airbox 1/2" closer. You have to make a new bracket.

2) Make a 1/4" spacer for under the gas tank. So the carb will not rub the tank and so the throttle cable will fit in the groove.

3) You have to "hack up" your throttle housing for the carb to open up all the way. This requires grinding down the throttle stop.


Please note that this carb is not for everyone. They can be a pain in the butt.

They have been known to overflow excessive fuel.

You have to play around with the idle, to get it to idle decent. It still will not idle as well as your stock carb.

I chose this carb because all I do is practice and race MX. I would not say this carb is for you if you are putting around the woods alot.

Just my opinion, there have been alot of topics on Lectrons in this forum. I would do alot of research before jumping in to buying this carb. There are other, more expensive alternatives (Edelbrock, FCR).

Also, I only have a full Big Gun exhaust. No motor work yet.
