[QUOTE="Old Man Time, post: 1069374, member: 62844"] My wording has been misunderstood by several which is my fault. I didn't mean that the KDX200 carb would be jetted the same as my 220 carb (although that is what has happened). What I meant was when this mod is made the KDX220 is supposed to be jetted the same as the KDX200 since it now has a 200 carb on it. Plug Test: Almost the entire ceramic except maybe the last 1/8 inch was creamy brown rust color. The last 1/8 inch appeared to be white no color at all. It was somwhat hard to see. I can turn the entire ceramic wet black by just jetting it where it is supposed to be jetted. Clutch abuse in my case happened before I ever went to the 200 carb. My clutch started slipping with the stock carb on it. It has been a weak clutch from the git go it could not handle much slipping in slow steep tech stuff. That is what I mean by weak. If you do not slip it so it does not get hot it works just great. But if you have to stop the bike on a extremely steep grade and you need to slip the clutch to get going it heats up very quickly. Just a couple slips and then the clutch starts slippin on its own. I bought this bike new off the show room floor. It is a great bike and I have not lost any low end by going to the 200 carb. If anything its stronger. I am just having jetting issues because I have to go so lean to get it to run right. Maybe there is a defect in the carb. Must be since no one here seems to get what I am talking about. I was just hoping someone with more experience with this mod than myself might be able to help me out. R B Designs is the next stop since he converts the stock carb into this mod. He charges $165. to do it but every one raves about what it does to the bike. It does not turn the bike into a 250. If I wanted a 250 that is what I would have bought. It generaly keeps all the good qualities of the bike only improves on them. I don't think the KDX220 or 200 will ever be an mx bike nor would I want it to be. I hope this clears up the waters I muddied a bit. [/QUOTE]
