[QUOTE="julien_d, post: 1315911, member: 98751"] The former owner acquired the bike from who knows where. He had a bike shop, and this one has been sitting for 2 years with the kickstarter problem. I'm not very familiar with the kips. I checked the gears and rod for the governor and everything LOOKS ok to me. Nothing broken or seemingly out of place, and I can move the rod by hand with the lever disconnected. It's a bit sticky, but doesn't feel "grabby" or "grindy". I have seen the kips write up on justkdx tips section. I'm going to take the carb out one evening this week to take note of the installed jets, and pull the intake boot off to check for cracks that may go all the way through. I'll check the reeds while I'm in there. I probably did not let it get warmed up, since it was leaking oil and water from the lack of gaskets. Some fool put it back together without a single gasket on the right side, just some kind of black silicone. blah. Lots of cleaning I'm sure to get the new gaskets to seal when they arrive. Thanks for the info!! I'm really excited to have this. I have several bikes, but the only one I have running well right now is a 1973 Kawasaki F11 250. Fun old bike! I can't wait to get the KDX out on the trails!! J. [/QUOTE]
