anyone running a lectron?
I just installed my lectron (stock carb was my weak spot and needed to be bored by RB or Freddette) I decided to drop coin and just get the LECTRON, holy crap only 2 days on bike and I will claim its worth every penny. I gained so so much bottom torque, smoother acceleration and now the bike can launch in any gear from a stand still, Im supe rimpressed with the performance gains and Im serious when I say Ive had to do NOTHING , just installed, plug and play, I cant wait to get out on trail and see what fuel effeciency gains I get. suppossed to be 30% to 40% gained fuel mileage which would be awesome

Not trying to rain on your parade but I would say most of the gains you got are due to the fact you replaced a bad carb. The Lectron is pretty sweet (have one on my GasGas) but the improvements you mention I got the same with installing an RB modified carb on my KDX's. That said, I'm glad your bike is ripping!
The best thing about the Lectron is not playing with the jetting once dialed in. I ride from about 800ft to 7000ft here in AZ so it makes life a lot easier. I haven't noticed any improvement in fuel mileage though.

My son's KTM 300 has a Lectron and it's the same story - no jetting worries up to 9000'.

How did you get the lectron to fit? I’m having a heck of time fitting without tilting to the side.

I'm curious as well cause I've always heard it was a very, very tight fit and have thus been reluctant to take the plunge.

I replied to your other post as well. Did you just recently buy your Lectron or is it older? In the following thread I posted pictures of how they now shave down one side to allow the carburetor to fit under the frame. I didn't have any issues at all installing mine, and I purchased it around June of last year.
What are the thoughts on Lectron
