MTX50 tuning

Discussion in 'Motorbike Technical Discussion' started by Threeships Mcduck, Jul 29, 2003.

  1. I just got my sons a Honda MTX50. There are two problem with it.

    1. It does not idle. It's got a Keihin 12mm carb. Where do I set the
    idling?

    2. It is totally dead when pulling away. You have to give it a
    thrashing to get going. Once it gets going and you keep it in the
    power band it's ok.

    It's a two stroke and I know it's supposed to smoke but this one looks
    like its on fire. Is it injecting to much 2t oil, can it be adjusted,
    or is something buggered?


    Anybody got experience on these? Any help or tip will be greatly
    appreciated.
