So I went almost 70 miles and didn't hit reserve. How the hell are you only getting 35 miles? |

95% of a ride over here would be 2nd and 3rd gear with occasional 1st required. Tight technical slimy forest or narrow rocky trails.

I had a guy get close enough behind me for a bit last weekend. He said he could see gas leaking out of my overflow hoses on a downhill. That tells me the float is at a incorrect level. Pulled it off and sure enough its too high. I was using a good deal of gas before. I'll see how it does now.

What is the factory spec on them? They're still using the Keihin PWK carb, right? Anyway, I know I've had problems in the past with PWK float heights. I normally run them at 18mm to eliminate losing fuel on the trail or while on the kickstand.

This may sound silly but it is worth a try. Put the bike on a stand or have someone hold the bike and make sure the bike is as level as possible. Then use a bubble level to verify the carb body is level to the ground. The carb sits on two different angles and it is sometimes difficult by eye to verify it is truly level. If it is not level it can overflow more easily and also run rich.

Mine's decent
I get 20 mpg (18 EC300)pretty consistently in a 2 hr Harescramble. Pretty happy with it, was concerned coming from a YZ250fx which got crazy mileage with the fi.
With the 2.6 gallon tank, if I manage to do 40 miles, I would be just getting to reserve. Just screwing around trail riding it does better too. I have a 38 pj, haven't touched the main and N3CH needle. |

Try using the Beta float adjustment. I had nothing but issues with overflowing on my '07 until I kept adjusting the float. The angle of the carb is causing issues.
I get around 35 to a gallon on the '07 300 if I'm not hammering it.

Man, I would kill for that kind of mileage! I'm only getting about 45 miles to a 2.5g tank on a 250 with a Lectron. Ugh.
