[QUOTE="MWEISSEN, post: 710958, member: 16873"] It's tough to tell what's up, but here are a couple of my opinions: 1. The carbon buildup on your head and piston aren't bad at all. In fact, I'd expect more on the head than what is there. 2. If the exhaust valve isn't closing, then that's most likely why you don't have any low end. The bent linkage MAY be bent stock (?). 3. The best bet would be to rebuild the top end and make darn sure the exhaust valve is working freely. Then deal with any jetting issues after all else is nice and tight. A bike with bad rings/piston/exhaust valve won't repond to jetting issues. 4. If it hasn't been running for quite awhile, I'd wonder about the crank seals too.... see if there's blow-by on the ignition side to check that side of the crank. If the bike was losing transmission fluid mysteriously, the other seal may be bad. More than likely a fresh top end will do wonders without messing with the seals. [/QUOTE]
