I got a pretty good deal on the bike, but it had bad gas in it and a fouled plug. After kicking it 120 times, I drained all the gas, put in fresh 93 Octane, replaced the plug, and it fired on the 3rd kick. It is running fine. My questions are:
What exactly do I do to "derestrict" the bike? It is totally stock, but has the baffle removed.
What is the best exhaust to improve power without excessive noise? I had an xr250 and the WB E-Series slip on worked well, and I'm looking for a good performance exhaust (not a full blown race pipe), as I want to keep noise levels as low as possible.
Finally, I think I have the starting drill figured out, but I'm interested in what works for you. Here's what I do: hold decompression lever and bring the piston just past TDC, let the lever out, KICK HARD with NO THROTTLE. It seems to work well. Thanks in advance for any and all replies. Cheers, Dave.
