Hawk X 250 jetting, and possible air filter and exhaust recommendations
Good morning, and thanks for having me as a part of your awesome community!
I have a brand new Hawk X 250 coming to me this week, and I've done as much research as possible scouring these forums but I was wondering if I could get some of you experts to provide me some individual guidances and recommendations! I've been riding about 20 years, and have other bikes and plan to keep this one indefinitely. I'm ordering a pe28 Nibbi carburetor, the flange model, in black, but two things I've noticed. Is one it's nearly $15 cheaper to get the non black finish model, is there any difference? I can also spend only a few dollars more and get the version with the air pod filter. I plan to ride 90% street and 10% very light hard pack trails. Is it worth doing an air box delete and going to a pod filter? I'm not opposed to switching to it immediately especially since it's a good deal, but I'm not sure of the benefit. This also applies to an exhaust, I've debated on ordering a JFG or Crf230 exhaust and running it right out of the gate. But the same thing, is there a huge benefit? Would you guys do one or both of them from the start? My main question that I would help on, is im familiar with how to work on carbs, what jet does what etc, but I was wondering if anyone has any starter guidance for the jets. For the next few months here it'll be 85-100f, and I live at sea level, I'm right by the ocean. What jets would you recommend I start with for a base line? If I went just air pod no exhaust, what jets would you recommend? What about airpod and exhaust with the pe28, what jets would you recommend for that? Edit: I ended up buying the black finish PE28 with the pod air filter and a JFG exhaust. I'd still appreciate tuning recommendations for 90f and sea level I'm sorry for the large post, but I really respect y'all's help, guidance and what this forum is. I look forward to being a part of the community. Thanks Hellenic Last edited by Hellenic; 06-22-2024 at 02:56 PM. Reason: Added the details of what I ordered |
