Thought I would post pics of a Templar x cat slit open and removed I found on FB. That thing has got to be restrictive.

They're rarely as restrictive as everyone thinks they are but removing it might free up a horse. More with a cam, porting, etc. I like the way it was done with a single cut. It makes it so much easier to keep perfect alignment when welded back together. Looks like I need a MIG welder and some practice pipe.

Whether it winds up being 1hp or 2hp from removing that cat, it is definitely felt in the seat of the pants as i can attest when the pipe was replaced on my Brozz. I look forward to doing it on the TempX.. wish they had a replacement header that fit on Amazon

I'll defer that to our very own MegaDan who can hopefully chime in walk us thru those hypotheticals with real world experience..

The replacement carb listed in the Templar 250 resource guide is not available for purchase on Amazon, and it's a 30mm. Wouldn't the carb I have listed below be the better choice? It is a 28mm (just like the stock Templar 250 carb) and it's available for purchase:

I have seen posts here where people ask if anyone has tried a pod filter on the Templar X. I don't know about the Templar and Templar M, but the carb on the Templar X aims at the rear shock spring, and there just isn't any room for a pod filter.
But, the snorkel has a nice smooth internal surface that snakes around to a VERY LARGE opening with a BIG OILED DOME FILTER. I don't think a pod filter would be better even if you COULD get it in there! In fact, a pod filter might be more restrictive. That dome filter offers a lot of surface area and it is very porous. Air must flow past that dome filter quite freely, and the large surface area allows for good filtering as well. ![]() I think the answer is to keep the dome filter clean, and replace it if it gets too fouled to clean. If you install a different carb, good luck on mating the snorkel. If you changed your carb, have you got a picture of this???? |

Below is the windshield I'm thinking about getting. I want something minimal--similar to what you see on KTM and Honda Rally. Ebay link below.
Here's a link to it on Ebay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/18566811144...MakeTrack=true |

Air/fuel mixture screw location?
Is the mixture screw hiding behind the silver cap that is between 7 and 8 o'clock from the idle screw when looking at the carb straight on?
Thanks in advance |

All: Over on thumper talk someone claims that one of the headers off of a “250R” will fit the Templar-anyone else verify that?

Hey Okierider. I’m embarrassed to ask. But where is the fuse box?
