Ride report: 2 new top ends

Post by cleoent »

:supz: :supz: :supz:

That about sums it up! Took the KDX220 and KDX200 out today both with fresh top end rebuilds. WOWSA! I love the one kick starting, and the wonderful power! It was sooo much fun!

The older kdx200 still seems to smoke a lot, any ideas there? I thought with a fresh top end, new rings etc it would smoke less, my 220 smokes quite a bit less. It was cold today about 60 degrees or so (cold for CA anyway lol).

Does it mean it's running too rich?

Thanks everyone for the help, the xr400 springs made a tremendous difference as well!

once you get the rings seated with the dino oil, go back to your synthetic ratio and jet from there.
If you run into Heidi, have her look me up in her little black book and give me a call.
