I know, but if *I* don't ask, who will ?!?

I suppose y'all can wait a couple of months until mine arrives in Arizona...

I'm just collecting data points.

Yeah but no doubt they're going to come in all over the shop just like the rest of the bikes!

It does have the 38mm carb. It seems a little rich on top. I'm going to take the carb apart to check into the jetting.
Rick...what's a squish band? LOL!

The squish band is right next to the powerband I think, but not sure on the 2012 models, they might have moved it......

I'll check it out when I get one here soon......

I can tell you from a mfg. stanpoint they probably will never tighten that up to where you would like it to be. With fuel all over the map in different parts of the world, there would have to be too many options to make it feasable in production. All bikes are like this, not just GasGas.

Agreed. Also the same reason why bikes (& snowmobiles, when they still had carbs) usually come jetted rich from the factory. They have to run at all expected elevations & temperatures without going too lean out of the box.

Guess not.
