Today, I pulled the drain plug out of the stock spark arrestor on my '04 kdx 220. Oil GUSHED out, it was fairly thick and very black. I have had the bike since late may and ride it quite frequently. I ride a few times a week around the house practicing wheelies and stunts or whatever. And then a big ride on sunday mornings of usually just under 40 miles. I ride pretty hard and like to stay on the gas. This is the first time I have pulled that plug. The owners manual said to beat on the pipe with a rubber cylinder to knock off carbon residue but there was no solid matter to this at all. I use Yamalube 2-S pre mix oil, it is just what my local bike shop sells. I mix at 32:1 as the manual specifies. Also, from the link where the expansion chamber pipe connects to the spark arrestor pipe, on the bottom of the pipe joint, oil seems to leak out there too. I have had oil along the top of the swing arm and even back on the brake caliper, not a steady line of it but just spots where it seems to spray out or something. My motor mods: I have removed the air box lid and I have a set of Boyseen Power Reeds. My question is: Are all of the the things I stated normal or is something faulty on my rig? I hope I have provided enough information, please ask for more information or even pictures if necessary. Thanks guys! Ya'll rock. :worship:
