[QUOTE="Martin Cole, post: 676399, member: 47387"] I'm pleased the restrictor plate idea had some effect but I suppose it's only natural you don't get a good run-on. Another tip could be to try a couple of extra cylinder base gaskets and/or another head gasket. This would slightly alter the port timing and reduce the compression ratio. One or both ideas are inexpensive and you have'nt made any mechanical changes that can't be rectified quickly. Here in the UK most people tended to stick with the stock KX60 pipe as aftermarket units produced little benefit for the cost. It is a different story with the KX65 which does seem to respond better when fitted with Doma or DEP pipes. I've seen some with Pro-Circuit and FMF but personally I can't give you any advice here as we don't race in that class any more. However, most of the quicker kids all seem to be equipped with Doma - but then the pipe is only part of the story - you'll get good results with well set-up machine that really handles and inspires confidence from the rider - and better reliability. A Technoflex rear shock, extended swinging arm and better brakes are all the KX60 needs to put them on equal terms with the KX65s and KTMs - but if you are spending that much you might as well buy a KX65 anyway.
