yes cold air is more dense but octane is a rating for resistance to pre ignition based on combustion chamber temps before spark happens....like when u compress air it heats up ..... so i mentioned the octane because when its hotter than Hades the chance for preignition goes up alot because the entire motor and even the intake air is hotter so i might need either lower compression or higher octane ....but i could be all wet hell i don't know lol maybe somebody smarter than me can explain it better .

X2 on spray paint ...i use dollar general 99 cent stuff and i have no issues at all ...only thing is to clean the bars good first but then just spray a bit in the grip then twist it in place and wipe any runs ....only takes a min or 2 to dry also uyou will probably have to cut them off when its time for new ones

stock is 24 i think....i put 19 in mine but i figure ill need race gas or at least a mix when temps get back over 70 but everything i read said 21 is safe minimum for pump gas.....too many factors involved to say whats safe for your situation but i thought id share my 2 cents lol

ya WOT is a must if carbs are on it ....makes a difference and sounds like your plug wires are suspect at this point

when u check the compression how many times do you kick it ? or do you kick it till it stops rising ....when mine was stock it had 120 left and 122 right but i put a cool head on with 19 cc domes and now i get 150 psi with 4 kicks ....i usually stop there cause i cant run pump gas if its over that lol

Dam ya i hadnt even thought about the stator......coil or cdi might also be worth swapping from a known good bike

i bet a dollar its a jetting issue....just my two cents but id raise a clip or try different needle ... possibly drop a size on pilot ...alot cheaper than alternative so not out anything just to try it.....and i think all shees will spit coolant on trails if overflow tank is still in factory location

according to my handy dandy banshee digital tool kit 15 39 will get u 91.2 at 10000 rpms with 20 in tires.....but who the hell knows if i entered all the info right lol

i think stock speed is about 85 depending on ur weight and stock gearing is 14 40 or 14 41 depending on the year....and i dont know much but i always use steel sprockets they seem to hold up good for me but i weigh 350 so aluminum sprockets seem sketchy and i just like steel lol

just a thought but i chased something like this and it was my son not turning fuel back on on his tank lol so i check the simple stuff first

idk about the rest of you but i weigh 350 and grip the hell outta the brake lever when i gotta shut her down and i could use more braking power lol and thats even with all brand new pads and fresh rebuild and bleeding them .....i guess they might just be fading quick but im definitely gonna do this mod lol...o ya and im lucky wifey has a yfz and i doubt she will notice the difference

ya id prolly check blinker fluid but seriously the answer is in the wires or caps PERIOD.......

x2 on that my kfx450 looked bad assed at night lol

thank you could not have said it better myself

loose magnet??????
