Default Lectron Carbs for my Raptor

Anyone have experience with these? There supposed to atomized the fuel alot more efficently vs FCRs or stockers.

Any insight would be helpful.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

Where did you find those carbs? The only two that I know of other than stock is FCR and Edelbrock.

Default Lectron Carbs for my Raptor

I posted in the bomb forum about a week ago asking if anyone has tried duels and quadloco had just finished up an install. Check it out. I had a lectron on a YZ 250 and loved it. And they would probably be almost half of FCRs. I'd like to see someone try them.

Cool. Jetting is totally different than what your use to. What sizes are you going to use or do you not know yet? Are you going to use two? I don't think a single would work as good. here's some info.

I looked at the Lectrons even had some in my hands from another bike. They are too tall to fit under the tank. The cables pull from the top like a dirt bike and need 3.5" of clearance from the top of the ventura even with the 90 degree adaptor. Tried to modify the tank but the pedcock is to close to the carb's.
