Mikuni jetting for CZ, Maico and more!

This site has a chart with recommendations for jetting for Mikuni conversions on many of the popular European vintage dirt bikes. People are always asking “I want to put a Mikuni on my CZ 250, what jetting should I use?”, well, this chart will provide some answers. In most cases it provides recommended carb size, main jet, pilot jet, needle jet, needle and slide details. Sometimes it also tells you who provided the info to the site. Naturally they are all just baseline recommendations and you will still have to fine tune to your individual requirements.

It is a great resource and if you have a Mikuni fitted to a bike which isn’t on the list then please email them the details so they can add another to the chart.
