Around the time I met the folks from Lectron, I was having a few too many issues with the carb on my 2015 Suzuki DR650. Although the stock carb worked okay, its factory set-up was way too lean and laggy, and I could never seem to get it adjusted optimally—especially for high-altitude variations or heavy loads. I tried jetting kits and even a “pumper” carb, but the mods simply never ran right; it guzzled gas, required constant fiddling and was an ongoing drain on my wallet from the many failed attempts to get it tuned.
