Pictures of my "new" KDX

It looks just like any other '96 KDX except that I'm sitting on it....:)

WR tuning

I should have played around with my WR though, I never thought it had much low end, just a hard to control hit once it got on pipe.

My WR's power valve was not hooked up correctly and I rode the bike for almost a year (and redid the top end!) before I got to studying the valve and realized that it had been hooked up wrong all along. When I fixed, that, it had a lot of low end. The mid-range hit obscured the low, but I practiced absolutely lugging it up hills and it pulled every one of 'em. I think the mid-range and top end just made the low end seem weak. However, I NEVER got the bike to run smooth in the mid-range. I have to ride 3-5 miles down smooth dirt roads (on our ranch...) to get to "sections" and the WR hated steady throttle- blub, blub, blub. I think I needed a different needle, but no one could tell which one I needed, so I just lived with it. Under actual riding (accelerate, brake, accelerate, brake, etc.), it was fine.

Love the KDX, though....
