[QUOTE="karterron, post: 568431, member: 29122"] I have an 02 CR250 and have experienced the same thing as you. However, the bike should idle higher with the choke on and slow when you take the choke off. Every bike I have ever had does that, so I don't think that is a problem. In cold temps mine will take about 5 or 6 kicks to start if I don't lean it over to get fuel into the bowl. I still have the stock jetting, but have an S8 nozzle on order. How does your plug look? That will be the indicator of a jetting issue, not how it idles. My 2 strokes have never idled, I have always heard it was due to the slow speed circuits in the carbs, they aren't made to idle and will load up at low rpm's no matter what you do. Do a search for CR250 jetting (the search engine on this site won't let you do an 02 search, says not enough letters) and you will see many posts on jetting. The guys over at Service Honda are close to me and they seem to think that with a stock bike just changing to the S8 nozzle is all I will need so I am waiting on mine to come in. I haven't had any issues with fouled plugs, but it is rich on the bottom. [/QUOTE]
