Went riding yesterday with my kids (both on KDX's) and my daughters developed a very strange (to me) behavior.
Start with the basics - hers is a '98 200 - airbox cover removed and re-jetted accordingly. Bike has been running fine the last few rides and started out fine yesterday and then what happened is that the bike simply stalled out while she was running it. Started it up - let it idle - fine for about 20-30 seconds - then it surges... and then it dies (no amount of throttle will save it). Tried larger pilot and main and same issue.
Have it home now and plan to dive in, but thought I'd get advice from some of you out there.
From reading it sounds like I need to check the air filter, leakage to and from the carb, reeds/reed cage... any other thoughts or clues would be appreciated.
