[QUOTE="MN KDXer, post: 44118, member: 16126"] A 220 should not have any dead spots in the lower part of the powerband, IF it is healthy. I would suggest (not necessarily in this order)- a) Check the carb for cleanliness, especially in the pilot jet. (even if bike is new) b) (if the bike is used) Check power valve operation. A quick check up short cut, is to remove the large flat-bladed screw on the left side of the cylinder. Next, use a socket to GENTLY rotate the hex nut. I forget CCW or CW, but it should go fairly easily, and then snap shut with enthusiasm. c) If the carb is bored, install Boyesen reeds. d) Adjust the air screw in a 1/4 turn at a time. Also, if the gas is old, dump it and get some fresh juice. Hope this helps! ------------------ -01 RM250 -Vet A Enduro and Hare Scramble Rider.
