It could be tough to find slow jets for that carb. A 30mm Mikuni is much easier. Here's one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Carburetor-A...c1c85d&vxp=mtr

Can you please confirm that this carb worked on Apollo 250? I just got the same bike, the carb takes half choke to idle, cleaning and rejetting did not help. Ordered the Mikuni carb, can't wait to change it as soon as it gets here. Curious how it is working for you. Thanks!! |

The slow jet choice depends on your specific bike and your elevation. With a stock pipe near sea level, I'd stick with a 25. With a free-flowing muffler, try a 30. Whatever your bike needs to start quickly and idle smoothly.
Another way to look at it is if the pilot mixture screw needs to be backed out more that two full turns, your slow jet is too small. Remove the slow jet and main jet from your carb and then hit www.jetsrus.com. Compare the jets from your Mikuni to the jets in the pictures, and ensure that the measurements match. Once you've found a match, you'll learn what the numerical designation is for your jets, and which point you can shop at www.jetsrus.com or eBay.

Mine came with a 20 and a 100. Needle has not been touched starts with a quick bump of the starter or 1 -2 kicks, I'm leaving mine like it is for now.

Awesome! I'm glad that worked out for you. You'll now have the ability to change jets if you make changes to the intake and exhaust.
