Message: [QUOTE="KylePeterson, post: 1446004, member: 128923"] great points, thanks for helping out with the feel side of the jetting. it ran fantastic yesterday in 95F heat, on a parking lot, all day (gymkhana) with street tires. several people went for joy rides on it, and ripped up/down the road at WOT in top gear. no issues besides the mentioned stuttering at constant throttle. no one complained about ridability, lack of power, or well, anything. grins were everywhere when they returned the bike. given what you've said, I'm going to look for a replacement carb that is either new or very low hours, given that this model isn't fully rebuildable. i have a pwk35 (i think) in the basement, but want to try a much lower hour carb and see what happens. right now i have about 15 hours of riding on a BR8ES, and it's still looking good. i'm going to continue to carry spare plugs, just in case, but hopefully this is soon to be a non-issue. thanks again for your help. here's the mix of "NO FUN" signs which the kdx typically breaks at any given moment: [ATTACH=full]19382[/ATTACH] i don't think i mentioned it yet, but i've also changed from weedeater oil (yuck!) to Lucas emi-synthetic, and enjoyed a much cleaner running engine. There is no smoke, a little bit of head pipe spooge, and none out the tail. I'm not kidding, at 40:1, once warmed up, there is NO smoke at all. it's only when the bike is warmed up, or at WOT runs that it will occasionally put out a signature two-stroke plume. even then, it's very minimal. the kips seems to be free of the normally gummy/sticky mess, and only be covered in a thin (3in1 like?) coating, which wipes off easily. the tail pipe is spotless. until told otherwise, i'm going to stick with lucas semi-syn for a while. i'm completely NOT a brand loyalist, but so far, i don't know any better. :) edit complete :) [/QUOTE]
