Guys - I have recurring problem with son's '03 KX85. Seems I have to spend an unusually long time warming it up before it'll take any throttle without fouling the plug. Someone watching me throw wrenches from trailside said that the bike needs to be warmed up (idle or little throttle) until it is warm before the bike can handle the big handsful of throttle. Seems to be true - if I attempt to ride it before it has sufficiently warmed up, the first throttle whack will result in a bog that immediately fouls the plug dead. Once the bike is warm, it'll wheelie through 4 gears. And it'll start after sitting through lunch - first kick. Too rich? (hint - I did rebuild carb recently but have setup according to stock specs). Probably I screwed up the carb. My 12 year old - not impressed.
-Stock plug
-Fuel: 32:1 Yamalube, fresh Premium gas
