      I have heard of people using full synthetic right from the start and be okay but in my opinion I wouldn’t run synthetic until 500 miles minimum. The main reason is that you want the rings to seat really good and synthetic might limit the ability to seat as good. I’m sure it wouldn’t be very noticeable but it could have negative effects in the long run. I personally would switch it out to conventional oil especially since it’s only a little over a quart of oil. But that’s entirely up to you

    I want to ask a few questions. Ive had carbureted bikes before. (Boom Vader 125) And have installed my own nibbi carb on it. I am not a master mechanic but i can wrench. I live in Florida where the weather is temperamental and have had alot of issues with my previous bile amd cold starts. I want to know if you have any solid advice for me when it comes to working with carburetors as someone still trying to learn. How do i get rid of low idle cold starts? How do i know ive tuned my bike properly because ill tune it and it'll be good then ill go to cold start amd it craps the bag. I get really lost in carburetors and they frustrate me alot sometimes. Any help would be appreciated.

      @@shardulferrer2117 Hello, carburetors can be a little difficult sometimes. Nibbi carburetors I have found are very finicky and I can see how people have a difficult time tuning them. My opinion is that people start off on the wrong foot. Meaning that they buy a nibbi that is oversized for the engine and then want to tune it to make it run properly. A 250 should run a 28mm Nibbi and nothing bigger unless you’ve done major engine modifications. It’s always best when you have the right size carburetor and you’re ready to tune, run it and see where the problems are. Idling is going to come from the pilot jet and the idle mixture screw. Pilot jet is idle to 1/4 throttle, the needle from 1/4-3/4 and the main 3/4 to full throttle. Now there will be some overlap in circuits. But if idle and cold start is your only issue then you need to focus on pilot jet and idle mixture screw. If it runs great but cold start is an issue then you will want to work on the mixture screw. Now remember on some occasions depending on the temperature you still might have to use the fuel enrichment ( choke) lever. When you pull it that allows more fuel for cold starts. Now after saying all of that I’m wondering why you don’t want to run the stock carb on the ghost? It runs very good with it, all it needs is a main jet change. Good luck with whatever you do

      @herbiesgarage681 I intend on running the stock carb. I just have had a lot of issues with stock carbs in the past. I struggle with confidence in tearing into a project or fixing something because I get nervous if I'm doing something wrong and break something. I'm hoping to get a ghost here soon when my financial aid kicks in and I won't be left with much money after I purchase it and want to make sure I'm not putting my eggs in a basket with a hole if you know what I mean. I made that mistake with the Vader 125 which was a really difficult bike. It would run good for a week and something would break and it was like that for a year. I'm trying to make the best deco for myself here and improve my confidence in wrenching on bikes.

      @ I like my ghost a lot it runs flawlessly but if I was in your situation the KPM 200 would be more appealing for a lot of reasons. I know it’s a couple of hundred more but I believe the quality and reliability makes it worth it. If you just don’t like the styling then I completely understand. The ghost is more of a raw bike I’d call it and would need some attention right out of the box but not so with the Kpm, it’s pretty much ready to go as soon as you get it properly assembled and the PDI done.
