    Hi all,

    New owner of a ZXR250C in Queensland. Bikes definitely showing her age :D
    Idle is terrible, above 4k runs perfect...

    Owned an Aprilia RS125 2-stroke and then a ZXR400-L9 back in England, always fancied a ZXR250 :thumb_ups:

    Here's a picture of the carbs, step one: cleaning and setup to factory settings

    totally shameless ;)

    @maelstrom Quick question, the airbox seals shouldn't affect how it runs as such should they?
    Might mean carb drags in some unfiltered air, or does the airbox itself provide some function to do with the vacuum etc?

    Airbox is a very necessary item for your carbs to run right.
