Preparing for Brozz delivery on Monday
I’m preparing for delivery tomorrow and gathering a few items I don’t currently own.
New oil and spark plug and valve feeler gauge, grease gun and grease fittings. I was looking at a simple stand at Harbor freight and maybe a jack. Didn’t really need that jack but I read it was the easiest way to install the shock. Heck my car doesn’t even have a spare tire or jack. My truck does. Is there an easy way to bolt up the shock without using a jack? |

In the lack of having an available friend or older child (a second person is ideal assembling these dual-sports), people have tied rope or used tie downs from hooks on their garage ceilings or carports to assemble these.

Welcome to the Brozz family! I recommend getting a dirt bike stand, balance it on the stand then you can easily rock it back to line up the shock bolt. it will also make routine maintenance much easier.

No , sorry. I just remember the Brozz are supposedly jetted a little richer 105 main jet. I’m at sea level. Something Else to look at.
Does anyone have a link for a upgrade jet kit for Brozz. I assume I’ll have to increase the main to a 110 or 115. Any help her would appreciated! |

The 105 works pretty good, I'm around 1000ft though, I went to 110, and it's about perfect for stock exgaust. You'll probably want 115 or 120. Mikuni main jets work fine I found a 105-130 pack on eBay for a few bucks.

I would leave the stock carb alone for the break-in period. I am fairly certain both the Brozz and the Storm have the same engine set-up (as well as the BMS CRP 250 and that new motard bike).

Lay the bike on it's side. Maybe put a tarp or blanket down if you are worried about scratching anything. That's what I did with my bike.

Thanks for all the advise. I’ll leave the stock jetting alone for now and see how she runs during the brake in.
I’ve watched a few video on setting the valves lashes. This is something I haven’t done before. So am I safe with .003 on the intake and .004 on the exhaust . And done on a cold engine? |

Cold engine, manual calls for .005 on both, I went .005 on intake .006 exhaust, seems to run pretty well.
