my advice would be to never enter a box intersection that is not clear for you to leave
(learned that from a driving instructor from Johannesburg)

now, if you give us some more info on what you would like advice on im sure we could be more helpful

mhh, I would like to see some pictures of the bikes, just because I don't think we ever got the KMX stateside and im not even sure where it fits and if the powervalve set up is the same as the KX or KDXs

according to some stuff I read on the web the KMXs are restricted in their exhaust and intake track (reminds me of my moped days)

so that poses the question of you have ever taken the stock exhaust off and checked to see if there is a restrictor in there?
they also claim there is a restrictor in between the carb and the air filter that could stand to be removed ;)

lol, how can you have parts missing?
either you have them or they are missing :naughty:

either way, sounds plenty simple enough, find the parts that are missing and get it put back together :)
