Default weak spark i think, any high output pieces available?

I just bought an 86 250r. It was stuck in 6th gear. I tore it apart and swapped out the transmission parts. It has loads of compression and is wicked fast bike. However it doesn't idle and it is a little hard starting. I think it is because of a weak cdi or coil. I looked around and saw that MSD had a kit replacing them with a battery that needs to be recharged. I don't like that idea. Is there any other kind of high output pieces to replace the stock?

sounds like you should look into the nology profire coil and wire. but hard starting and no idle sounds like carb issues to me. give us some details on your mods and carb jetting.

I finally got around to seeing what jets are in it and i agree that it is a carb problem after reading some other posts. It still has stock jets- 150,48. Other mods are FMF Gold Series chamber, Fat Boy silencer, K&N Filter, bored .060 over. I know that those jets are to small. What sizes do you guys recommend I start at.

Why make power half the time with a 4-stroke when you could make it all the time with a 2-stroke?

By slide do you mean the little clip on the throttle needle?

Ditch that fmf pipe and buy a esr5 or a pt eliminator or pt high rev. Add a 38mm pwk and see what that thing can really do.

as for hard starting. you should have a 50 or 52 pilot and check your reeds. I can start my r in 1 kick no matter what the temp

Those jets with a fmf are going to be close, might have to jump up one or 2 on the mains. Your pilot is whats causing your hard starting if you have new reeds. Try a 50 or 52, that should help.

Where in Pa are you located
