    need to know carb size for 82 250r

    I have a 82 ATC 250r that I am rebuilding. The people I bought the bike from put a huge aftermarket carb on it and i am wanting to go back to stock, mainly because I have to replace the piston (it was fried), and I dont know how to jet the carb for the right air fuel mixture. I need to know one of two things. Does anyone have a proven combo to make the bike run faster (carb size and jet info for correct air fuel mixture), OR does anyone know the size of a stock carb for a 82 atc 250r. I was on ebay and someone had one off of a 84 and they said it was a 31 mm. I just need to know the size or point me into the right direction of where I could find that info. I do have a manual, and it does not tell what size the carb is for the bike. ANY help would be appreciated. Thanks

    I have a 82' with a 34mm. I tried to go back to stock and it ran like a 185. It was bogging out. I fell in love with the speed and reliability of a 34.

    Yeah, 27mm is wayy too small for those engines, although that is what they had on them from the factory. I'd go with the 34mm if I were you.

    I'd think you could jet a 36 or 38mm Mik without an issue. Amazing to know they called for a 27mm...
