[iRoqq]

i want to order this as well as new sprokets for my x18 when i order it from holeshotz. ive never owned a midbike but ive ridden some and people say there harder to maintain than a full size. so what will i have to do to change the carb and sprokets. how do i change them. will it need fab work or is it just bolt on bolt off.also which sproket ratio is best for better top end and acceleration.crazy_smilie

I have the 26 taper bore carb and a 28 rear sprocket and Im running about 65 mph with a modded exhaust. I gained about 10-15 mph off a carb and sprockets. They are bolt on and depending on if you get a rear sprocket or a counter sprocket youll have to either take the wheel off or two screws off the engine to get to either of the sprockets.

[iRoqq]

u just reconnect the hoses and ur done?

[newb503]

and bolt on the manifold (2 screws) very easy. But you also have to tune it.

[iRoqq]

wat do u mean tune it

[ninja x1]

adjust it!! its kinda tricky if you don't know how to!!

[iRoqq]

ok i get that i have to adjust it lmao. wat do u mean lmao

[ninja x1]

[iRoqq]

[Blitz$M.Inc.$]

dude your gonna have a hard time i think, but its fun to learn and see the result
dont even worry about getting parts for it yet
something will break soon enough, start with that
i did have to replace my carb first, it ran a drop of water through and was never right after that
ask lots of questions about stuff and dont believe everything you hear see and read

[ninja x1]

ok here are the jets that you adjust!!!!I looked up 26mm mulkin on googel, not shure if its the same as the carb ur geting,!!!! the green circel im not shure!! the red ones you turn them to adjust!! correct me if im wrong!

[iRoqq]

can i use this post to change the carb just disregard the cleaning part?

ill still get the carb. ill leave it in my garage and if i dont like the performance ill upgrade. but thatll be after a month or so or when my friend gets the x15 and it suprisingly is running better than my x18

[ninja x1]

yup!!! those are the jets!!!

[iRoqq]

so i just use a flathead and turn jets until i like the performance or i turn it until the bike works lmao

[iRoqq]

alright lmao. u makin me thing i can break my bike with one mistake lmao. ok this is goin to be the setup. 17-28 sprockets/26mm mikuni carb kit NGK performance plug

[Blitz$M.Inc.$]

its a good start
93 octane, proper air in tires, tighten all bolts

[iRoqq]

OMG THE BIKES RAN ON GAS?!?!?!?!?!? I THOUGHT THEY WERE ELECTRIC!!!!!!!!! Nah but if i let the gas sit in the tank for a while like thru the winter would it not flow evenly? or should i start it up now and then thru the winter. on youtube this guy showed that if u drop the bike on its back tire like 4 times and kickstart itll start automatically. he said that removes all excess fluids from the lines or some sht

[ninja x1]

just emty out the gas if it will sit for a long time if not just start it every now and then, so you wont clog the carb!! or just take out the gas!!

[iRoqq]

u know what i wanna do. get a trashed muffler, and put a silencer, like a car has on the tip. cut the can like 1 inch down from the tip and put it on. that would sound so nice

[ninja x1]

thumbsup2experiment!!

[iRoqq]

f.r.e.e that spells free. that song is CRAZY!!!!. ok. ye. i want to do that. since the x18 is pretty high pitched, it would sound high/deep. deigh(pwnage word)

[ninja x1]

?? high pitch, wut you mean??

[iRoqq]

it sounds high pitched. like a loud sound with a medium frequency

[ninja x1]

?? not to me

[iRoqq]

guess im wrong lmao. the vids on youtube all sound high pitched. must be bad cam quality

I am just curiouse but which carb kit are you looking at buying.

[Holeshotz Performance]

To answer some of your questions, if you are wanting to buy sprockets I would recommend waiting until we have our Sprocket Specialists sprockets in stock which should be sometime in the next week or so. They are made out of high grade T7075 billet aluminum and are top notch, I will even go out there and say they will be better then any other sprocket currently on the market for these bikes. They will bolt right up to your bike no problem and we can even cut the chain to the proper length for you. If you are planning on upgrading the carb along with other mods down the road, get the 15/33 combo.

As far as the carb goes, they come pre jetted to run decently with the 110 motor so most likely you will only need to make adjustments to the needle jet, air/fuel mix and idle. I can walk you through it on the phone if needed.

If you have any other questions, just give us a call tomorrow 866-398-8108thumbsup2

its cuz the cameras!lol

[iRoqq]

15/33? why?

[TomHines]

So when you get a new carb do you have to port it... Or can you just put it on and call it good to go?

[Blitz$M.Inc.$]

you dont port a carb
when you put it on you might have to tune it, like adjust settings so it runs the best
