[QUOTE="SpDyKen, post: 1327062, member: 60208"] Just getting the jetting right on your YZ will give you a much better spread of power, and you will be able to use that to out-ride your brother's KTM, even with the stock cylinder. If you follow the advice of the various jetting threads here at this site, (and I cannot emphasize how important this is,)there is no way you will do any damage to your engine, as you will have learned what to be careful of & what to watch & listen for. Double-check all of your mechanicals first, (reeds, comp., etc.) then check your float heigth. You'll start with your pilot circuit first, (and spend the most time on it,) and you cannot do any harm to your engine, if you make a mistake here. So, go wild, experiment, & learn. By the time you start to work on your slide needle (needle jet,) you will have already gained a great deal of confidence. Always use the best fuel you can afford, and be consistent with it. You can always use some high-octane fuel when you experiment with your main jetting, to give you a safety margin, if you are worried. It sounds like you have the aptitude, you just need the knowledge that comes from research and experience. Go for it & good luck! You're in for some very rewarding fun. :nod: :cool: [/QUOTE]
