Is the valve free by hand, and are the cables in good condition? At certain RPM and on over-run the action can appear jerky.

Pretty sure stock AR is 48 pilot, air screw 1 3/4 turns out and 148 main jet.

Good shout! !

I'd probably suggest a plug chop.

What I did when wiring my bike was use 2 or 3 pin waterproof plugs for the lights and kill and ignition switches. I also made (using the oppposite plugs) bypasses to carry in my spares. That way you can easily and quickly bypass the ignition or kill switch when out if you damaged one and lost a spar...

It's going to be a process of elimination. You could start behind the headlight checking all wires , plugs etc... bridge over the ignition switch and kill switch using a piece of wire or equivalent.

EDM!!

Does it?? Never heard this before?? Even when the engine's off?? I plan to fix my old one or get a new one ASAP anyway.

Cheers.

WD40 usually works wonders to be fair!!

PS how dare you encourange treachery on this CRM250 forum?

Tempting, but...... wouldn't say Honda on it, neither would it have autolube!! Also the Gas-Gas's seem to have uncomfortable vibrations which I don't like (not sure if the have a balancer shaft) and dare I say the bikes or engines wouldn't last as long as a CRM.

I know you'd need battery room. My mate's fitting one to his Gas Gas, think you change the flywheel for one with gear teeth and it starts it that way. I don't mind kicking in normal use, but there have been several occasions where I've been off the bike and it's not been easy to get back on, or stal...
