do the breather kits make that much of a difference on a yx150?

yup that a monster coil and a rev box and you'll love it, just make sure u clamp that hose down or it'll leak.

Run the hose to a catch can or it will spit oil out.

What kind of a difference does it make?

all three together smoothed out the rev for me. i did them all at once so no idea wat the specific gain was

how much does that coil help?

mpaderta · 09-26-2009, 07:19 PM

where can i get a breather kit for the yx 150 and shud i just use any revbox like a tokyomod...the throttle is choppy and hard to ride on grass with worn stock tires lol

Blackwoodz · 09-26-2009, 07:32 PM

I have an extra...but most vendors sell them.
sounds like you need to jet it better

alright you guys have peaked my interest. The YX150 that I have came with an inner rotor installed from the factory. I thought that you couldn't buy aftermarket rev boxes for the IRK's. I have installed an ORK on mine to try and calm it down a bit. What would I gain by installing the rev box and/or the monster coil?

YX150 with the KLX type head should be run with the oil near the bottom of the stick. Make sure the case breather tube isn't pinched. It's plenty to vent the motor.

Watch the timing on the OR setups.

So Fire what you're trying to say without stepping on fragile ego's is "The damn motor is fine as it is. Stop looking for phathom horsepower. Just ride the damn thing!" Close?

Blackwoodz · 09-27-2009, 08:12 AM

Unless you have excessive ring blow by the stock vent is adequate. The head breather is like so many other bling toyz out there...I do have one but it is mostly for looks.

My Lifan 150 has a lot of blow back should I try the breather kit? I was just going to put a catch can on the crank case vent what do you all think?

The lifan 150 has a smaller venthole as the YX's. I am running an extra breather on the head and have both lines ending in a catchtank. Prevents blowing out seals.
