Hello to all,
I have a 98 250EXC and am learning to love the motor on this bike. I came off a KDX 220. Anyway, the kick starter will not engage unless you very quickly slap it back. Its kinda like a shoulderstrap on a car, if you pull it slow it will not catch. I can reach down with my hand and quickly move it and it will engage. Then I can kick it over with no problem. However, this worries me because I have an enduro next weekend and this could be a problem during a race. Has anyone had this problem? Do you know how hard it would be to fix it? Thanks in advance for your suggestions. Also what would be the best replacement pipe for this bike, an FMF or ProCircuit?
Keith
