so i just bought my first dirtbike a few months ago its a 03 cr250r and it seems like a pretty nice bike...today after i got it started it seemed like it was runnin kinda crappy and i remembered that id been told if you dont ride it hard that it will foul up since its a 2 stroke...so i took it down the road and opened it up for a mile or so...finally it seemed to be running alright and respond well when i cracked open the throttle. when i slowed down to an idle to turn around the bike quit on me...after a long push home i see that it does have spark and that it seems to backfire or almost sneeze back at me when i try to get it started. i dont really think i over rev'd it or anything...still had plenty of powerband....hoping i can be lucky enough that im describing something that someone with experience will know whats wrong or have a good guess..thanks for any input!
