I've had my 01' kdx 220 (all stock) for 3 months, and it never seemed to run like I thought it should. I posted a plug fouling thread and got great advise. I re-jetted to a 142 main and 38 pilot, 2nd clip.
All this helped the fouling, but it seemed like the bridle was still pulled back a bit.
Well my new Pro Circuit pipe and silencer came in yesterday. (my wife said I was acting like a kid)
I put it on and guess what...... my air screw revved up at 1 1/4 turns out, compaired to 2 to 3 turns before. I knew something wonderful was about to happen.
After a short warmup, my little green baby decided to show me what I been missin.
I could hardly stay on the seat. Front tire was coming up thru 5th gear. Power band was kicking like a mad man. It seemed like the power and rev's had no limit. I actually had to let off a little (sheered me).
Don't think that I'm a green horn and have never been on a fast bike. I rode RM's, YZ's ect. before I settled on the kdx. This was different. Seemed like the bike was alive, and wanted to impress me.
Boys............ if this is what you guys call "spot on" then I think I got it. Sweeeeet :thumb:
I can't imagine what additional mods will do. Can't wait.
Thanks for all your help. Maybe some day when I learn "allot" more about my bike, I can give some good advise to some new rider.
