[QUOTE="Micahdawg, post: 663357, member: 21668"] I do appreciate the advice guys. To better describe the fouling....I changed the plug, bike fired right up and I went riding. I went through a tank of gas, came back to the camp site and put the bike up. A few hours later I would fire the bike up, head out to the trails.....and within minutes it would bog and go dead. A fresh plug would get me good for another long stint of riding, but would do the same thing if I tried to go out again. I even ran a HS race for 2.5 hours on a plug and the bike ran good, but afterward it would be dead. Since I haven't rebuilt the bike since I've had it (3 years) and riden it fairly hard, I decided to check compression. It came up low at just over 100, so if that has anything to do with the plug or not, we do all agree that it is pretty low on compression right? And I'm not surprised. You can't ride a 2 stroke bike for 3 years with no work into it and expect it to keep running forever. BUT, if it continues to do this after the rebuild, at least I'll have some good ideas on what to check out next. Thanks for the help. Micah [/QUOTE]
