    I have a 1989 klr 250 that I acquired a few months back and got running but the carb has some broken and striped parts on it so i ordered a cheap replacement that says it fits but the carbs bore and flange are much smaller than what's on the bike and its completely possible that i was sent the...

    Sold my not so great running(but still ran anytime I hopped on) klr250 to a friend and I'm helping him fix it up. I drove that bike daily so I'd love to get it running proper. So it had a slight hang idle before I sold it but then it got worse after i sold it. used to be able to 1 kick it cold...

    Removed the carb for a good cleanup and now I’m struggling to connect one of the hoses. I think I understand all but the one circled in red, see picture. I know that the top part connects to the side (vacuum system) of the petcock. But I’m not sure about the other piece (in red). I bought the...

    Sooooo, tonight I rode the old girl to the high school football game. After she say about three hours, I went to start her with enricher on, and she wouldn’t fire. Took several tries (in total about two minutes of cranking off and on) I’ve noticed the last several times I tried to use the...

    What spare parts would you take for the carb, if any? For ref; Approx a 15k kms (9.3k miles) trip over two months.

    Hello all, I recently installed an EM 692 kit, MCP carb kit, had the head freshened at a local shop and valve seals replaced, new lightly Oiled UNI air filter, spark plug, battery, doohickey, manual petcock with vacuum line capped. The issue I am running into now is a loss of power coming from...

    Putting in the KLX jet kit and see this as I’m reinstalling. Does this go at petcock or carb? I pulled it out so you could see, but it was flush with the end of the hose.

    Hey everyone, I bought a keihin cvk34 carburetor off ebay for my 1997 klr250. The description said tested on a klr250 but I made the mistake of not inquiring about the year. The only difference that I see is a single throttle cable, no decelerate cable. Now I "think" it should work without two...

    I took my carb off to inspect it and clean the gunk out if it. I didn’t adjust any screws, change any gaskets or swap out any jets. When I put everything back together, the bike started up fine, but was running hot and the exhaust pipe started glowing hot. Any ideas why this happened? I tried to...

    I just got my first bike and it’s a klr a month ago and while I was driving today it seemed like I ran out of gas so I switched to reserve but then when I filled it up it only took four gallons and I thought it took six. Then about an hour later I was at a stop light and I saw my blinker light...

    This is the 56th time the carb has been off, so bear with me. - been chasing an air leak. I have finally narrowed it down to the intake boot from the carb to the case. But with no cracks and a rubber seal intact I can still not get a solid seal. Idles fine, but spray starter fluid at the...

    Hey everyone, I'm new here. I just picked up a 1984 KLR600. It has a PWK aftermarket carburetor. I'm having trouble making it run well. Not enough gas/too much air. I'm still playing around with the A/F and the jets and I'm getting closer but I just realized that this isn't the stock carb! The...

    Gents: I’m taking things apart today as I prepare to send my cylinder and head to Eagle Mike, I noticed there is a small fuel strainer inside the fuel hose at the carb fitting. Maybe that is supposed to sit inside the fitting and just got stuck inside the fuel hose. At any rate, I didn’t see a...

    After installing a new fuel filter - I noticed fuel will not run into the filter when hooked to the carburetor. Fuel runs out of the tank no problem. I am wondering if I have the fuel lines hooked up correctly: 1. metal connection on top of front of carb is connected to tank gas cap. 2. Grey...

    Okay gents, I'm stumped. I'm also pretty heartbroken because I thought my bike was in the clear after it rode great for 25 miles. Here are the details: -My 09 KLR has essentially not been started in 4 months. I wasn't planning on it sitting for the whole summer, but couldn't ride it because I...

    I had my local Kawasaki dealer install the stage two Jet Kit along with the Lexx MXe muffler. They had a lot of trouble getting it tuned right as the recommended set up per the instructions resulted in flattening out at 6500 rpm. They tried 4 or 5 settings before going back to the stock main jet...
