You got that right!
Back when I was running enduro; if the trail opened up onto the highway; I would run with the choke on to avoid just that problem.
I learned this trick after seizing my Husky with a (you guessed it!) Wiesco piston.
I have another theory apart from your jetting being too lean.jaguar said:If you are on the highway (let's say you live out in the boondocks where there aren't any cops) and in top gear you get the engine revs into the middle of the on-the-pipe "hit" and then reduce the throttle setting to 1/4th to 1/3rd to maintain speed and not accelerate
then is it normal to seize?
That just happened to my KDX200. It was jetted great and I had practiced motocross with it just the day before. On taking it apart the piston top showed the middle of the crown black colored, and the remaining crown (probably half of the area) a light brown. The pipe/porting of the engine was for the hit to happen at upper mid range. The wiseco piston melted on the exhaust side and I really had to work it over to release the stuck bottom ring.
what do ya think?
