Thank you for the video, I plan on doing the mod on an 05 tomorrow. From the research I have read the reason the grey wire exists is to retard the timing in the mid range rpm's to help the bike pass sound tests. There should be no side effects other than a slightly louder exhaust note mid power. I post this info for those worried about bad side affects. also the grey wire only exists on WR250f's. If you have a different bike please look into the specific model you want to mod. Thanks again for
I have a 2008 wr 250f and I am unsure of doing the mods because I have never had any problems with the bike and it always starts when I need it to. I just want to know what problems could happen if I did all these, and what are the positives because I want more speed and power. My bike is stock and it will do 75mph
Hey man thank you so much, your video helped me out alot, i just did the mod on my 2005 wr250f... and it makes a lot of power difference.. it feels that the bike has more bottom end and it revs faster! thanks man!
hi it was easy to do and did make a difference up through the revs also noticed that it sounded alot different and burnt more fuel also every now and then when i gave it some stick and let of you get small flames out the back . for road use i would leave the grey wire in but take out for the dirt hope this helps
Here's an idea>> you could simply extend the grey wire and connect it to a 2 way switch on your bars, then you would be able to select what ignition curve you needed depending on the terrain. just a thought
That would definately work, but I have found that once I did the mod I never wanted to switch back. My wifes WR didn't have the GW cut and mine did for a long time untill I got around to doing hers, so I got to ride them back to back a lot, and I must say that I don't see a reason to not do the mod.
You can definately just do the throttle stop that will just let you twist the trottle a little farther. I did the AIS and didn't re-jet with the GYTR stuff, I went with the JD jetting kit later on when I wanted to re-jet because it is a better kit.
You also don't have to remove the carb to re-jet it you can rotate it on the bike. The jets are on the bottom of the carb and the needle is in the top. It can be a pain the first time you do it, I would get on thumpertalk and do some research before you get started. There is a video from a user named coffee that shows the carb pretty well search on you tube for:
re jet fcr-mx
and it should come up
His is off the bike but you can rotate it on the bike as well
I just bought a 2007 wr250, and I also bought the GYTR AIS Removal Kit that came with the parts necessary to rejet the CARB. Is it okay if i were to only remove the AIS system and not change anything else? Is it true that I also have to remove the entire CARB to rejet it and re - do the throttle screw?? PLEASE REPLY BACK
Removing the gray wire switches the bike from the wr ignition timing to the yz timing. Or in normal language it makes the bike rev better in the higher RPMs.
you can take the fuel tank off without compleatly taking the shrouds off u no

If i do this mod to my 2006 model, will it still be good for trails? or will the revs make it hard for me?

Great video.
I like this method much more than simply cutting. You could always re attach it if you wanted, but why. Simply a non-destructive mod.
