    If i rode it in the winter.

    I was wondering if the carb jets have to be changed with the differnt times of the year because of temp. Do they sell a kit with all differnt jets?

    Thie picture in my signature below was taken at 5 degrees. No trouble with the 250sx running even with all the ice freezing to it.

    Is that a 125m you have? I use to take mine all over in the wintertime on the snowmachine trails, long before I even knew what a carburator was. I've left it outside all night while winter camping or staying in a cabin and have always been able to start it back up without too much trouble. Negative temps probably down to -20 at night before.

    Both machines are running factory jets. Just make sure to let the engine idle and warm up slowly to operating temperature.

    Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "HOLY SH-T, what a ride!"
