10-16-2012, 10:11 PMHi,
I have a Shineray XY250GY-2 SuperMoto. It comes with PZ30 carb which is very common in chinese bikes. I want to put a mikuni VM carburator. But I couldn't decide VM30, 32 or 34mm.
I think PZ30 has 100 main and 20 pilot(slow) jets (or close).
For Mikunies;
VM30: 250 main, 40 pilot
VM32: 200 main, 35 pilot
VM34: 260 main, 35 pilot jets...
Take a look;

I am confused with these numbers. I know carb. setting is not so simple but main jets are the biggest factor in performance. So in here, don't the main jets seem a little bit inconsistent ??
And another thing, when I checked the link above, VM32 has largest volume(acrd. to dimensions). It should be better for good fuel/air mixture IMO. Isn't it??
I can get a VM32 but not sure for jets...Do you have any suggestion for a jet combination? (There are jet kits for VM carbs.)

Merhaba.
Did you find out what kind of carbs and jets are on the engines with same displacement and similar construction (similar compression ratio, DOHC, 4V ...)? I would use someone else's successful formula to achive engine's optimum performance.
By the way, since you are the sole owner of the XY 250 GY-2 in this forum, could you make for us its detailed walkaround?Ask me nothing - I DO NOT speak english. Really...

Sorry for late reply. I am still searching...
It was a good idea. I searched the NX250 carb. Which I find is; #142 main and #38 pilot jet. And this a carb. rebuild kit for NX250 ; #138/38 main/pilot. The NX is known as a inconvenient bike to modify.
I also searched Yamaha TTR250, which has a similar DOHC+4Valve, ~25hp engine , and it uses #142/48 or #147/50 main/pilot jets. And for re-jet, users tried 138~152 main jet numbers. And I found a comparison for Mikuni-Yamaha jets. As we can see numbers are not same but very close for equivalent dyno power.
I forgot to look for KLR/KLX - 250.
Actually, a 30 or 32mm carb. is normal for a 250cc but Mıkuni's numbers are a bit weird. And I checked the link on my first mssg again, in the fist table;
"Dim A=40 mm(Intake Manif.)" for VM30,32,34 carbs. Does that mean it is a 40mm carb.? But I don't think Mikuni is fool enough to give a name VM30 for carb. which is actually 40mm. I think there is a big conflict on Mikuni numbering. I hope I will solve it...
By the way, I am new in forum and I thougt XY-2 is well known here... I will make a good walkaround vid. when I get a good cam. from someone

40 mm on a 1/4 of a liter, ~25 HP, engine - looks like overkill to me.
However, you see that the 40 mm refers to the diameter of a intake manfold. My experience with all kinds of Chinese two-wheelers says that carburetor diameter and manfold diameter does not have to be the same.Ask me nothing - I DO NOT speak english. Really...

hi
the first problem is you cant fit a 40mm mikuni carb between the frame where it must be located in front of the intake manifold !!!!
some of VM series carb are for 2 stroke engines be aware cause the jet numbers are confusing and go for mikuni TM 33 or more

I realised that numbers on the jets can mean (at least) three things:
1. diameter of the jet orifice.
2. flow of fuel during a defined time and conditions
3. arbitrary number determined by carburetor/jet manufacturer
Why does have to be simple, when it can be complicated?Ask me nothing - I DO NOT speak english. Really...

11-01-2012, 02:24 PMThanks Nima. Actually we also not sure it(VM34mm) is a 40mm carb or not. But I know people do VM34 fit to this bike. I talked with them.
I checked the TM series. Commonly, they are claimed to give better perf. than VM's(also higher prices). And I saw TM33 (and TM36,TM40) has accelarator pump.
http://www.sudco.com/mikuni3.html and http://www.motorcyclecarbs.com/Mikun..._W138C1395.cfm
Other TM's don't use accl. pump like VM series.
TM33 uses #127,5/37,5 main/pilot jets but TM34(no pump) has #280/50 jetts as standart. So I think, accl. pump lets to use much smaller jetts bec. of different working characteristic. @Zorge this may be the reason of number confusing...I was thinking #280 or 260 is too much for a 250cc.
Now can we say, with the right jetting, TM33 is able to give better performance (also better fuel efficiency) than TM34 because of accl. pump ? I am comparing because TM33 is 50~70$ more expensive. I started to think It will be a good choice

11-01-2012, 04:13 PM:D The guys were from sweeden I talked(e-mailed) They had fitted MV34 to their bike(which has no pump.) They had raced with the motocross model of this bike 2~3 years ago. And they made certain changes; cam shafts, Big bore kits, Exhaust modify etc....
I will measure the space for the carb. on my bike. If TM33 is OK, I will go with it. Otherwise I will get a MV34 which is smaller and cheaper.
Yes, the "search" seems almost over, but searching on forums never ends I like to talk with experienced people ;)

I like to talk with big breasted, preferably unexperienced, girls- it's more... informative. But it's only me...
By the way, the carburetor with acceleration pump is a wonderful thing. Perhaps classic design carburetor can give better overall performance, but the acceleration pump gives smoother ride without hiccups.Ask me nothing - I DO NOT speak english. Really...
