[QUOTE="Canadian Dave, post: 44368, member: 16102"] Chances are very slim it a magneto problem or a bad crank seal on such a new bike. Did you follow the manual exactly when you reassembled the KIPS valves? If so it likely they are in backwards. Some factory shop manuals wrongly identify the left-hand sub port valve. To quickly check pull the pipe and look up into the cylinder. Both sub-port valves should be in the fully closed position. The symptoms you're describe lead me to believe this is your problem. Check out [url="http://www.justkdx.dirtrider.net"]www.justkdx.dirtrider.net[/url] , click on tech tips then manual correction to properly identify the valves. I'm guessing that there are literally thousands of KDXs running around with improperly timed valves thanks to this misprint Other things to check: run fresh gas not last years left-overs, change your plug it could be loading up and starting to foul, make sure your carb is clean i.e. remove the float bowl and flush everything out with carb cleaner. If nothing here resolves the problem get back to us and we'll keep plunking away at it. David ------------------ [url="http://www.justkdx.dirtrider.net"]www.justkdx.dirtrider.net[/url] [/QUOTE]
