Lectron / Smartcarb

Hi,

Wondering if anyone is using either Lectron's or Smartcarb's and what their impressions of them are?

Thx
J

I have 2 sets of 34 mm Lectrons. I'd like to use one set on a track bike.
I ran a set years ago on my TZ250. Once they are set up, no jetting changes are needed, anywhere. There are no jets within, just a metering rod. They are good for wide open riding. Behave like a switch, on full bore or off.
If you can handle wide open riding, consider them, otherwise, go for a set of Mikuni flat slides, way more streetable.
