As this kit increases the performance of the ROTAX FR 125 MAX kart engine over
the r.p.m. range from 7.500 1/min to 14.000 rpm (see following performance
chart) the carburetor jetting needs to be changed (see following calibration
charts).
WARNING: The use of smaller main jets than shown in the calibration chart can
lead to piston seizures under the existing conditions.
For best characteristic of performance the squish gap (distance between piston
and combustion chamber insert at TDC-position of the piston) has to be adjusted
with the various base gaskets to 0,9 – 1,1 mm.
WARNING: The squish gap may not be adjusted to a measurement lower than 0,9 mm.
A squish gap lower than 0,9 mm will result in a piston seizures.
All other components of the standard ROTAX FR 125 MAX kart engine have to stay
unchanged.
We recommend that the upgrade of a ROTAX FR125 MAX kart engine should be done at
an authorized distributor or one of its service centers. After the update kit
got assembled to the engine you have to run in the engine as described in the
operators manual.
WARNING: Not running in an engine properly will lead to engine damages If you
need assistance assembling the kit on your engine contact an authorized
distributor or one of it´s service centers or download the repair manual from
