See the title of my last post ;)

I didn't know that he had been hurt. Bummer.

Sorry I never read titles and when you quoted that post I got confused LOL.

Yes he hit Canard's bike early in moto 1 and separated his shoulder. They have some leads on a good replacement rider but I do not think they signed anyone yet (I am a moderator on twostrokemotocross).

Thanks Jake, I was thinking of the folk's who've had there's a while.
As for myself 7months. couldn't be happier,even more so when the cast
36 show's up for the 200.. But an update on the newer bowl's would be
great.

I'll sell you the whole thing.. float bowl and all. Not impressed with it.

Note: time to talk to Corey.

You say Lectron is better than SC?

In fairness to APT, I need to talk to Corey before making claims like that.. My own personal experience with the Smart Carb hasn't been impressive. There have been a few small things that I'm not too happy about (fit, return spring on the slide binding, poor feel on the clicker/adjuster) but I can live with these. I've put a few hours on it now and I just can't get it to run close to where I want it to be. I know I said the Lectron wasn't 100% either, but in comparison, the SC is only around 75%, the Lectron was 90%. This doesn't mean that the Smart Carb won't be perfect.. Its just not there yet..

Ok, i see. How about Lectron/SC vs. stock Keihin with good jetting? In your % scale of perfectness? :) Mine pwk works pretty nice but it can be just because i dont know better...yet. I'd Like to try Lectron or SC someday but it is worth of money spent is what i thinking?

That was comparing to my PWK.. I'd consider that as close to perfect but I did put it a lot of hours tinkering to get there, and even then it had run lean at times.. But the complexity of it, allowed me to change exactly what I wasn't happy with.. It had more adjustability, which allowed better results.

After 90km loop today mixed riding.. The APT carb just hit reserve when warming it up after its wash. Very similar to what I used to get with the PWK too.
