[QUOTE="Fred T, post: 170794, member: 22413"] [b]Heat and cool cycles are best...[/b] to get the piston and rings properly seated and get the piston to form. I suggest you start the bike up and let it run gently rapping the throttle to keep it from fouling a plug. Get it nice and warm for like 15 minutes and you don't need to ride it. Then let it cool completly, and I mean completly like for hours. Then do that again. Next take it for a spin for 20-30 minutes running gently through the gears but getting some load on the engine and going through all the gears several times. Then let it cool again. You can now drain the tranny oil and replace it. Take her for a trail ride and don't run it high in the rpm range for extended periods that first ride and you're good to go go after that. I personally change the tranny oil after ever 2 rides so after your next ride change it again. I might also suggest you visit Canadian Daves JustKDX site for jetting help. The KDX comes jetted rich. Oh, and another thing....tear the uni track apart and grease it along with the front steering stem bearings. The Japs don't grease them nearly enough from the factory. [/QUOTE]
